Foundation paper piecing (FPP) is a quilting technique where fabric pieces are sewn directly onto a paper template, which acts as a guide for precise piecing. The paper provides a sturdy base, helping quilters maintain accuracy and achieve sharp points and crisp seams, even when working with intricate or irregular block shapes. FPP is especially useful for complex designs, such as geometric patterns, curves, and detailed images, where traditional piecing methods might be challenging or result in errors.
One of the main benefits of foundation paper piecing is that it allows quilters to work with smaller fabric pieces, which can be particularly handy when using fabrics with intricate prints or when making blocks with unusual angles. The paper acts as a stabiliser, preventing the fabric from stretching or shifting, ensuring more consistent and precise results.
FPP also reduces the need for exact cutting, as fabric pieces are typically cut larger than needed, and the excess is trimmed once the block is completed. This makes it a great technique for both beginners and experienced quilters, as it reduces the risk of mistakes and opens up more room for creativity. Additionally, FPP can help make the most of fabric scraps, as smaller pieces can be incorporated into the design.
In short, foundation paper piecing is a valuable tool in quilting, offering precision, versatility, and the opportunity to create intricate designs, all while making quilting more accessible and enjoyable for quilters of all skill levels.

Would LOVE to join you, but my hubby has a specialist appointment at 9:30am ….. family comes first. Very best wishes and I will watch it later……😊
That's ok, the video will alwayws be here, and yes Family always comes first
Thank you for showing the paper piecing instead of tearing the paper, I guess I'm one that doesn't like to tear the paper off.
You’re welcome, sounds like this method will be perfect for you ❤️
I thought that this method was so you didn't need as many templates. I.e. you can reuse the same template many times
Yes, that's another benefit of this method, I forgot to mention that in the video.
I never seem to catchy the live lesson.
Not too worry, maybe next time ❤️
