Just took a class on English paper piecing. Fantastic!! Check out the book, "new English paper piecing" by Sue Daley. It's sooo fast and NO sewing around the templates. You glue and then sew and when your done with your 'flower', whatever, you take the cardboard/template right out and you can reuse it. This method is so exciting and so fast.
