Hi First name
 
It’s Victoria again from Little Black Duck with week 5 of the Make Time sew-along.

If you have met me before you will know that Foundation Paper Piecing (FPP) is hands down my most favourite patchwork and quilting technique. I love it so much so that my three other blocks (plus your free bonus block) in the Make Time quilt are all Foundation Paper Pieced!
In my blog post for this week, I share with you some of my top tips for Foundation Paper Piecing and some of my favourite tools that I turn to every time I use this great technique.

I also have for you a YouTube demo video of me making the Sewing Machine Block. The great thing about Foundation Paper Piecing is the skills that you learn, can be used on any FPP quilt block!

Check out my blog post to find out more about my take on Foundation Paper Piecing.

Share in the Facebook group
We are also hanging out in the Facebook group if you want to ask any questions and of course, share your finished blocks!
 
Next week it will be Nicola's turn to give you some tips and tricks to help with her blocks: Bubble Bath; Friendship Star; Smell the Roses; and A Good Yarn.
 
Happy sewing!
 
Victoria
