Thanks for a great, simple FPP tutorial. My list of quilting projects and challenges for 2022 includes mastering foundation paper piecing, and this was just what I needed to get started.
Thank you, I can't wait to give it a try. Loved your little night scene, made me laugh out loud. I have not done this yet , your video is just the push I needed .
Great Tutorial Christopher. Very easy to follow you and not rushing thru the video. Your are calming thru the whole video which helps to watch and follow along. Thanks for your great video. Frances PS I love your fabrics too!
I love foundation paper piecing. It’s my go-to method, but honestly, I’ve never used the actual foundation paper; just use very thin computer paper. I like the idea that it doesn’t curl. I may have to invest in some.
instead of holding it to the light for placement- when you have your paper folded to trim that quarter inch, line your neqw fabric up behind the seam allowance nice and even. You can see it and it keeps you from needing to trim that allowance again after stitching, its already nice and neat and perfectly placed.
You got this! Use a fabric safe glue and remember not to go crazy so you don't get glue on your iron. Try it once without glue too, you may surprise yourself!
I must be missing something…. I’ve watched several FPP tutorials and watched each of you holding up to the light, sewing, then holding up to the light again and so on. Why isn’t the design just printed on both sides? This would eliminate the tiresome task of aligning the fabrics from the other side! I was thinking of buying the blank foundation paper and giving printing on both sides a try. Thanks for all you do Christopher. I’ve been collecting Blue and White china for years and love your fabrics!
@@christopherthompson9489 i forgot to say how much I love your blossom fabrics. Love love love them. 🇦🇺 I think they will be a staple for me. I have used them so much.
Not a fan of the crazy fast sped up section. Some of the of us like to see the whole experience. One thing I did learn was to scale up my needle size. Haven't seen that mentioned elsewhere with FPP.
