If you crave precision and love creating detailed designs, foundation paper piecing is for you. FPP uses machine stitching to sew fabric to paper templates and create precise and intricate shapes with ease (the paper is later removed). In this class you will learn the basics of FPP and practice sewing some fun beginner-friendly blocks.
