Foundation paper piecing (FPP) is the ideal way to get perfectly sharp points and create fun quilt motifs. By using the FPP technique you can create quite intricate designs which would be impossible with traditional piecing.
This collection features 100 fun quilt blocks from some of the best-known names in patchwork and quilting. All the blocks are made using foundation paper piecing and all the templates are featured at full size with the seam allowance added so you can trace them off and get piecing straight away.
There's a comprehensive section showing you how to do FPP with step-by-step instructions and photos; perfect for those new to the technique. The motifs featured include everything from food and drink (strawberry milkshake and pizza anyone?), to designs for outdoor explorers (a canoe and campfire set the scene); pets and wild animals (think racoons to kittens) and everything in between.
This means that you can create the perfect quilt or quilted project for your nearest and dearest based on the things that they love the most. The motifs include a wide range of popular designs everything from avocados to rainbows so you can mix and match to make perfect personalized quilts and quilted projects.
As well as instructions and patterns for the 100 FPP blocks there are also instructions for ten projects made using them including a retro apron; a rainbow pouch bag; a tote with 1950s sunglasses motif; the perfect table runner and a cute, kitten pillow. So why not choose your favourite motifs and get started making perfect quilted gifts for your friends and family?
