That does sound interesting! I would also love to take a class. I wonder if anyone will offer an online class of this technique or if there is a book or online tutorial or something. Huntsville stores don't seem to keep up with the trends sad to say...

Judy Mathieson has very good step by step instructions for this method in her Mariner's Compass book, this is how I learned the technique. Just do a Google search for Judy Mathieson and you will get lots of hits. Here is one I got for Hancocks of Peducah and this is the right book. http://www.hancocks-paducah.com/Item--i-CT-10406

Feline fanatic,
That's the technique I've been using for the Montana Cartwheel class I took. One difference, instead of the iron, just staple the stack in 2-3 places before stitching with no thread. Use a staple puller to remove the staples. The stitching sure does make it easy to fold. Someday I'll get the camera back from my husband and post a picture of my progress so far, about 70 arcs, I think! :D
It's a fun technique!

I forgot to say that if you are doing the stitching without thread thing, you just stitch through a pattern piece, no need to have all the pieces printed because the stitching takes the place of that. Since you do a stack at one time and can reuse the freezer paper pieces 6 times or so, it goes fast and you don't need to worry about gumming up the printer.
