INTRO TO FOUNDATION PAPER PIECING



Foundation Paper Piecing is a great technique for patterns which have sharp angles and points, and small pieces. To master this skill, we will be using Carolyn Friedlander’s pattern, “Outhouse”, which is charm pack friendly. The block finishes 5” x 5” and used on its own, would make an adorable “mug rug”. Or if you become addicted to FPP, go big and make 10 blocks for a table runner, 20 for a wall hanging, and 30 blocks for a baby quilt. The pattern is whimsical and lends itself to using high-contrast scraps for the houses and roofs with low volume fabrics for the background. Supplies: • “Outhouse” quilt pattern by Carolyn Friedlander • Fabric per the pattern. Bring scraps, FQs, or your favorite charm pack, plus the required amount of background fabric. • Rulers: “Add a Quarter” ruler plus a 6½” square acrylic ruler • Rotary Cutter: please put in a new blade! Cutting mats and irons are provided. • Sewing machine in good working order with an open-toe foot, new Microtex 90/14 or 80/12 needle, power cord, foot pedal and bobbins. For thread, I like Aurifil in a neutral color. • General sewing supplies/notions to include fine pins, scissors, Clover clips, seam ripper, and I strongly recommend Mary Ellen’s Best Press or Acorn Precision Piecing Products. Pre-class preparation: Please read through the pattern before class. If you would like help choosing fabrics or have any questions, please contact Annlee by email, annlee.landman@comcast.net or call/text to 970-846-7830. We will take a break for lunch, so please bring something from home (we have a fridge and microwave in the classroom) or you can run out to a local restaurant for takeout.
