Foundation Paper Piecing for BEGINNERS - Faith, Hope & Love | Oct 7, Nov 4 & Dec 2 9:30-3:30 - Nov 04, 2024 09:30 am
FPP has some great benefits and is actually an easy way to make some very complex patterns. BUT - you have to get started! This class uses a simple pattern from Carolyn McCormick called Faith, Hope and Love, to learn and practice FPP. In the first day, you will learn how to get started and piece 2 simple blocks - then you will get to practice as you repeat those blocks multiple times. Session 2 you will learn a more complicated block that completes the illusion of curves in this quilt, and you will piece together a whole section with the blocks you have created - so you can practice this as you put your quilt together. Session 3, you will learn how to measure and cut your borders and binding - and get ideas on your quilting patterns to match your skill level. Bonus!! The quilt you are creating was created for Breast Cancer Awareness. Choosing your colors - you can also create a wonderful gift for a friend to comfort them as they battle Breast Cancer.
