English Paper Piecing
|
New twist on English Paper Piecing--from Busy Fingers Patchwork! Sue's technique uses a plastic template (included in the kits) to cut the basic shape and then a quick baste of the piecing papers with a glue stick and you are sewing! The lazy susan style round work table makes the basting easy and allows you to work in a chair at home, in the car or your camper. We also carry her recommended #11 straw needles. Her 'Pies and Tarts' example at Quilt Market was marvelous!--it did just happen to contain numerous 'wedges' of Dargate fabrics :) Her husband called those the 'ugly bits'! I was flattered.
