I have watched so many videos and read so many articles about paper piecing and I just was not getting it. The I just stumbled onto your channel and read the title and sighed. But I decided to watch the video anyway. The directions and instructions you provide are so very clear and the process actually makes sense to me now. Thank you.

I too am starting later in life...a 60 yr old who was a seamstress all her life and only dreamed of being able to make a quilt. Well, it's taken me over 40 years to work up the courage to try. And it's clear, quality tutorials like MSQC and yours that have given me the confidence. Thank you!!!!

I liked this video, Nancy did a great job explaining it. I am new at Paper Piecing and seems very confusing. But I am ready to try it after this video Thank you Nancy!
You are a smart lady. Great way of not wasting fabric. Just add 1 inch to piece size to cut fabric! I see tutorials where plenty of fabric is wasted. Fabric is expensive to waste. At least it is in Canada
Thanks for the clear instructions. Easier to understand for a beginner.

So very helpful demonstration, love how you teach!
Thank you for such clear instructions, my friend has been telling me to use paper piecing for years, I could not get my head around it, now I understand.
Love this step by step video on paper piecing. I think I can do it now.
Thank you. That was so much help, I’m getting ready to do a paper pieced block for a BOM and it’s been a very long time since I’ve done any of this. Your tutorial was great.
Nancy, your are indeed an artist! I have never seen such beautiful art in cloth form. Thank you for your videos, your explanation motivates me to try to make at least a small quilt. The fabrics that you select are artistic on their own.
Thanks! So clear! I was so nervous about FPP, but you took away my fears. Now, to try it out!

Thank you! I would like to make my own designs for paper piecing and wondered if you could share how the numbering works. Is there a system explaining the order of numbering the pieces? Hope this makes sense... Love your work!
@QuiltingWithNancy
4 жыл бұрын
Hi Kate, the numbers is usually from the inside out - so if you were doing a log cabin you would start with the center and the numbers follow as the rows go out. Having said that, i do most of my paper piece designing on the Electric Quilt program, then it pretty much numbers it for me! :) Nancy
I am learning a lot from your videos and love your background quilts! Your selection of quilt colors is amazing to me. I would love to purchase some of the patterns like the tulip centered paper piecing quilt. How can I purchase patterns from this and other background quilts that are used in your videos?

Ive watched your video on the New York beauty with your tip to add an 1/8 to the outside edge. Do you do the same with this tulip block? I absolutely love your teaching style. thank you for all your great videos!
@QuiltingWithNancy
5 жыл бұрын
Hi Debra, I don't normally add the extra 1/8" to the edges of "noramal" paper pieced designs, but it doesn't mean you couldn't. the reason i find it helpful on the NYB is becuase of the curved piecing, that seems to distort the block so that extra helps it be square in the end.Thanks for the question,Nancy
Verla trabajar anima a iniciarse en el patchwork. Venden online la regla que utiliza para cortar? Es de 1/4 de pulgada? Gracias por compartir.
Hello! First of all this was the greatest tutorial ever. Thank you so much for posting this! I would love very much to get this pattern. I saw in a reply to another comment that you said it was available on your website, but I went to your site and could not find it anywhere. Is it not available?

Hello Angela - thanks!! it is available on our website, here is the link: www.onpoint-tv.com/product/learning-to-quilt-the-complete-set The book is an EBook so you can use all the links through out the book to take you directly to the video that shows that technique. Of course you can print the book also if you choose to have for making notes.
I've never done paper piecing before. Your tutorial is wonderful. I was hoping to use your pattern, and follow along, but can't find your pattern. Can it be purchased anywhere?

With your video I am confident I can try this and make it turn out like it’s suppose to but I am confused on when you sew past the outside line of the pattern and when you don’t. If unsure can you stop at the outside line and have the pattern still be right?

Hi Anna - honestly I don’t know, I have never tried. I’m wondering if that is something you can ask your copier to do? Is there a mirror image option on your copier? Good luck, I hope that helps.
What determines when you sew past the line off the page and when you stop at the line where design ends?
@QuiltingWithNancy

If the design line is at the edge, I sew off. If the design starts or ends in the middle of the design I start and stop at the line. Hope this helps :)

After a few failed attempts at putting it together I finally completed the first two triangles and discovered I did them both the wrong way round. I didn't take into account the mirror image.

Hi Gail, I do cut the fabrics for those smaller pieces but always bigger than they need to be. Place your ruler on the piece and cut a fabric piece at least 1" bigger to accomidate the 1/4" seam allowance.Thanks for the quesiton - Nancy
