I love doing PP feathered stars!

I just learned to PP last week, and i am addicted!!

Gosh guys, thanks! Printed a "how-to" from Quilter's Cache and it seems like more work than actual difficulty. I'm sure willing to give it a try. They suggest using a big needle to sew the "papers" on the seam line to make it easy to tear off. I was thinking of freezer paper, too. Will just have to try it!

I made a quilt for my son using PP. The points came out great and I was pleased with the end result. However, picking out all the little paper pieces drove me nuts. I think next time I will try freezer paper and smaller stitches, like some of you have suggested.

Good luck Kitsie!! Have fun. I'm a beginner and with this, I can make blocks I couldn't otherwise piece corectly to save my life. :-D

I love it!!! Fold the paper over and score it with your finger nail, then tear it off :D I just use cheap copy paper and it tears right off. If I see a little bitty paper triangle in the seam line, I remove them before they get buried... removing those little pieces early, doesn't hurt the block any :wink:

I love to paper piece! Once you get the hang of it the precision you get is worth the effort :D

Love pp. Once you get the hang of it, it is so easy.

PP is something I want to try, but it scares me!!!

I like paper piecing because of the precision that is possible. If you use a small stitch and cheap paper it isn't too hard to remove the paper.
They now have water soluble foundation paper. It is more expensive than cheap copier paper, but it just might be worh the expense.
