Try pining at the seam line and flipping the fabric over to see if it covers.

You can say that again....how many times have I sewn a piece together only to find that when I flip it..it's going the wrong wrong... check and check again..........

How do you do the paper piecing using freezer paper? Do you cut the freezer paper to put through the printer? Thanks. LOL in Christ, Happy Stitchin

I love to paper piece! Actually, that's what's gotten me into quilting. I like to do wallhangings and small pieces. I usually use printer paper to sew on, but I have also bought some June Tailor foundation sheets and printed my pattern on those. (especially nice for teeny,tiny things) I like to collect patterns and thank everyone here for sharing websites and links!

I love to PP. So many designs that are too hard to piece for me & I wouldn't be able to do them without PP.

Hello everyone! I've been on the board for a while, but haven't navigated to everything yet and just found this area for PPing! Had to subscribe! Love to PP and do it all the time! Hope to enjoy good conversations with other paper piecers!

I just found the virtual section! And I have been paper piecing for about 1 1/2 years. But I go back and forth between traditional and pp. I did the Mariners' Star by Niemeyer for my son and fell in love with pp!
