    Have you tried this? I printed it out - but I think I need someone standing over my shoulder and telling me exactly what to do.

    Would have loved to see the end product from this pattern to see this completed. Do you have any more pictures?

    And here are some blocks I have made PP this way:

    If anyone gives it a try and has questions, I would love to help!! I will never paper piece by sewing through paper again.

    Oh and another benfit to this way of PP is that since the freezer paper is folded back and you can see the shape of the piece you are attaching, it is soooo much easier to get your fabric positioned right soyou don't ever flip it and find it's just a little short on one side.

    I have not tried this particular way, I just found the link and got excited about it. It seems to be clear enough and easy too. Basically there is not much difference in the technique I think that the option to iron it on gives U more exact result.

    I do not have any more pics, but the final work would not be much different if at all as the classic way. I just got exited about the technique and re usability of the paper. No more heaps of tracing or printing. Saves lots of time. :thumbup:
