Help with paper piecing pattern
 

I purchased a pattern that I loved at a quilt show recently. Upon looking at it the other day, I was amazed that the pieces are paper pieced. Anyone that can give me any help with converting these pieces into regular templates would be appreciated. I have never done any paper piecing and really don't have any desire to do so but I really like the pattern and there must be a way to just cut the pieces and sew. Any advice or help will be so appreciated.

Can you show us the pattern?
Or tell us the name of it so we can look it up?

Usually PP patterns are made that way because of being so small and complicated. Are you looking at a lot of tiny pieces?? What is the name of the pattern please.

Can you photocopy the pattern, cut the pieces apart, then add 1/4" seam allowances around each piece? I wouldn't cut the original pattern apart because as MQ2 stated, most pp patterns use small pieces. They don't translate well to regular piecing. You may want to try a simple pp pattern first (go to Carol Doak's website); you may find you like pp--I'm addicted to it!

I think Craftsy has a class on paper piecing.

You could cut them out, paste on cardboard like a vanilla folder, then trace a 1/4" border around them, cut that out and use as a template.

there are different types of paper piecing. Carol Doakes does it one way Judy Niemeyer does it another.

Paper piecing is a world all it's own. I love it. I recommend Carol Doaks' class on Craftsy. You will learn the basics and will be pping like a pro after the first class.

I found this link-it should help convert to a traditional pattern. https://www.jinnybeyer.com/quilting-...DB5A7E4D24AB9A

Also, sometimes quilters prefer PP because it yields sharp accurate points.
