In this 3-hour workshop, students will learn the fundamentals of foundation paper piecing (FPP) while completing a modern and vibrant twist on the log cabin. This foundation paper pieced block is cleverly drafted to create a composition of a human eye, using just one foundation paper piecing unit. Students will learn the fundamental elements of FPP such as tackling complex angles, alignment for perfect points, placement and positioning of fabric, orientation of seam lines, continuity of shape, steps for precise piecing, and so much more. Students will leave feeling confident to piece not only the tiniest of fabric shapes, but also large, irregular fabric shapes, and tackle any foundation paper piecing projects! Sewing machines generously provided by event sponsors!
