anybody know how to convert a template to paper piecing ACCURATELY? The question arrises after reading "Thank you for your help-I did it" by katiemedarlin and her DIZZY GEESE delima. Seems her template was off and it was suggested that she try paper piecing to get her points right. AND how does one KNOW if the template is off before starting? As you can tell, I don't use templates so this is foreign to me..... comments anyone? BTW-her quilt is gonna be a stunner... gooooo katiemedarlin !!!

In theory if you draw the pattern correctly and sew accurately the PPing will work.
So trace the template and true up the lines if needed. When it is the way you want go for it.
