Beginning Paper Piecing

Led by Jim Curtis

A Foundation Piecing Method
Instructor: Jim Curtis (503) 489-7085

This is a beginning paper piecing class so you will learn what paper piecing is all about and the techniques involved.

Supply List:

Fabric – Selections of scraps from your collection or select different colored fat quarters. Try to bring some light, medium and dark fabrics in your choice of colors. This is a practice piece so fabrics are not as important as the technique.
Pattern – I will be supplying the pattern at the time of the class.

Basic Equipment Needed:

Sewing machine – new needle (bring your machine manual too)
Pins
Rotary Cutter – Sharp blade
Scissors (fabric & paper if you have them)
Small cutting mat & ironing mat
Small iron, (if you have one, but not necessary if you don’t.)
Ruler (I will supply a sample paper piecing ruler that you can try out during class)
Thread – your choice of color

Preparation:
It will be helpful if you have selected and purchased all of you fabric prior to class. We’ll cut the fabric in class. We’ll do the rest of the work in our class too. Now let’s have some fun!!!
