    Default Want To Learn To Do Foundation Paper Piecing

    I love foundation paper piecing, but I know some of you are a little hesitant about trying it. I came across this tutorial which I think is one of the best I've seen on foundation paper piecing. You don't have to run out and buy the book just to give it a try. The pattern she is using is very simple to draw and you can use everyday computer paper. Use your scraps and give it a try.

    That is so nice of you to find an easy project for someone to give it a try. Once you get the basic concept, it is addicting.

    Great tutorial, thanks! I recently had a friend teach me the process but this was a great refresher and I agree with one poster, I think foundation paper piecing can become addicting!
