My tracing wheel is over 50 years old and still works great! My tip would be that when you use your tracing wheel you lay your paper on your ironing board or wool pressing mat and then run the tracing wheel over the line, using your ruler for accuracy. This allows the wheel to make bigger holes and tearing off is a breeze.
Awesome guide for determining the size to cut for the individual fabric pieces. I like using Golden Threads paper, but that would be an expensive proposition for a large FPP project. It does tear off like buttah!
This tutorial is so good! Easy to follow but doesn't treat us like idiots. I have a rather complicated PP pattern I've been wanting to try, but I've been scared off by complaints about the method. (Too complicated, you have to work backwards, it wastes fabric) Your video as inspired me to give it a try.
Thanks for the perforating blade tip! I did buy one of those flimsy marking tools because it was all that was available. And threw it out. Have the blades in my cart! I have sometimes stitched the line with no thread but the blade should be faster. Hoping to use for freezer paper FPP.
This is a great tutorial! Many years ago I took a class that involved rather complex math calculations. No fun. You make it super simple. Thanks so much! 💜
You always make things so much easier than they appear. And thank you for the how to measure for fabric piece sizing. I have loved paper piecing since my first Project Linus Quilt! Thank you again❤
This video is so easy to understand. I have done both FPP using copy paper and freezer paper FPP and both work well. It depends on the project which method I use. I use my very old tracing wheel that actually slightly perforates the paper making it easier to remove the paper.
Thank you for this video. Have always tried the ruler method and got frustrated at times. Definitely want to try the perforating blade. As always, your videos and patterns are always so easy to follow
Thanks, Mary, for this tutorial. I like foundation paper piecing, but I hate the tearing off of the paper. I will definitely try the freezer paper, but mainly I want to try the perforating blade.
It is a GAME CHANGER for me! I love it! It's inexpensive and really works well. Ever since I discovered it, it has been my "go-to" for all my foundation piecing.
Just got into FPP and love it but really love the pattern that gives size to cut fabric but how do you measure for the odd sizes or long funny size LOL or a oblong square and all, love your videos and do you have patterns out?
It's called: 5 Pack 45mm Crochet Edge Skip Blade Perforated Rotary Blades for Paper Perforating Fleece Fabric Scrapbooking. The Amazon link in the video description is correct.
This first tutorial is just the "how to" of creating a foundation pieced block using simple triangular shapes. I hope to have several tutorials, eventually addressing the "odd shaped pieces" but it would have been WAY TO LONG to include that information in this tutorial. Thanks so much for watching!
The free gift is the pdf pattern with the written instructions plus the printable foundation patterns, detailed instructions on how to put them together as well as the measurements for each piece, for each of the 3 blocks. The link to the pdf is in the description.

I usually "get a hankering" to use a certain color or fabric. Then I look through my quilting books and TH-cam for the quilt pattern I want to use.
The fabric does call to us, doesn't it! Thanks for watching!
Thank you! I’m a beginning quilter and want to make the Project Linus Mystery Quilt. This video and the Freezer paper one are really helpful!
Glad it was helpful! You're very welcome!

Thank you for this video. I had never done fpp before. I followed along with you and made a beautiful block. 😊.
I'm so glad!!!! Congratulations! It really does open so many more opportunities to create more challenging blocks! Thank you for giving it a try!
Thanks for a great refresher. You taught me originally with a Project Linus quilt.
You're welcome! The tools that I'm now using makes the process even more accurate, quicker and easier! We're always improve! :-)

looked for blade but did not find if right one? Is it called skipped blade?
ok no skip blade then can you put a link in for the one you have cause the one you have looks like a skip one but you said no
It's called: 5 Pack 45mm Crochet Edge Skip Blade Perforated Rotary Blades for Paper Perforating Fleece Fabric Scrapbooking. The Amazon link in the video description is correct.

Oh for land sakes, I thought that your orange square of fabric was a slice of American Cheese LOL
I've never quilted with American cheese! :-) Thanks for watching!
@@joyfulandmerryquilting haha that funny. It would definitely gum up your needle!
