Foundation Paper Piecing Basics with Striped Hexi's, Equilateral Gone Awry, & Nuts About You.
Why would anyone stitch fabric onto paper? The benefit is that the paper keeps the fabric from stretching creating precise piecing, consistently sized blocks, and sharp points. Foundation paper piecing also allows for the creation of shapes that would be difficult to make using traditional piecing methods. In this class, you'll make beautiful hexagon blocks while I take you step by step through the technique and show you how to use the tools that make it easier. Choose your favorite from the three pattern options: Striped Hexi's, Equilateral Gone Awry, and Nuts About You. This class is best suited for open-minded quilters of all skill levels that are ready to add a new technique to their tool belt. No previous experience with foundation paper piecing is needed. Bonus: We will explore block design and I'll show you a trick to make Y seams easy.
Kit/handout Fee: $20.00 (Paid to the teacher in the classroom).
Kit includes: Participant chooses their pattern - either Striped Hexi's, Equilateral Gone Awry, or Nuts About You.
