    I know how to paper piece but I don't know how to take the templates and turn them into a pp pattern. I tried one but ended up where I couldn't sew a piece in between two other pieces. It was a mess. Any online video on this subject?

    I'm to the point do to time constraints from school, that if I could figure out how to make patterns into PPing I would. I love to PP, but don't know how to convert them.

    Hi, I managed to get #18 done-- I still say it looks like a Transformer Action Figure. My grandson has one in different colors. I just have to put # 17 together. It's all cut out. My hand is still sore from the accident. Anne

    Really like your Transformer's fabrics. Hope your hand gets better soon.

    Might make mine today. Feeling bleary eyed. We'll see.

    I used the rotary directions for 17, and templates for #18. I was surprised at how easily they came together.

    Hi Debo. Someone in this group had mentioned a site, www.cosman.nl/ that has a free download of Quilt Assist. You can draw your own blocks for any size and you can also print out paper piecing patterns. I have made several of the FWS blocks using this site.
