    Eleanor Burns has quilt printed fusible interfacing and Quilt Smart is fusible interfacing with the design printed on it. I have used the printed grid fusible interfacing for a watercolor quilt. It was a pain to use.

    An excellent resource that details many variations and answers questions posed in this discussion is Jane Hall's 2006 book: "Experts' Guide to Foundation Piecing" You might check for a library copy. A Google preview can be seen here:

    In full disclosure, yes, I wrote a chapter. As did others including Carol Doak, Judy Mathieson and Peggy Martin.

    I cannot believe this. I have a copy of this book lying at the bottom of my books. When i saw the picture i remember buying it years ago when i first started paper piecing and everything looked so DAUNTING. Now that i have more experience, i am going to go through it with a fine tooth comb. I saw your page. So exciting to be corresponding with someone who is in a quilting book. FANTASTIC. Thank you very much for answering and reminding me about the book.

    This looks so wonderful. Well done. Would like to see a close up of it if possible. I have made my 2 daughters 21st quilts and my third daughter i would like to do paper piecing. The first was victorian (first every quilt) 80% hand pieced, second one was applique (first time also).

    Newbie here, I am hoping to use fusible interfacing instead of papers in the making of a Mariner's Compass block as in the video spoken about above. The printed on interfacing sold by Quilt Smart is for a very large one, I only want to make one 12" block.

    So my thought is to trace a pattern from a book on foundation piecing onto the fusible webbing and proceed from there as in the video. I have never paper pieced a Compass either, is it the same method or is it something completely different?

    Thanks so much in advance for any help on this matter!

    That is interesting. With doing PP, I think I would prefer the freezer paper since you want to remove all of the paper before quilting.
