If you've been wanting to learn how to Foundation Paper Piece, now is your opportunity to learn with the Foundation Paper Piecing Series 2 designed by Shabby Fabrics! This series is a follow up to our first Foundation Paper Piecing series which was a customer-favorite! Series 2 includes all new designs - one for each month of the year with a free video tutorial so you can follow along as you learn tips and techniques. We have worked hard at simplifying the process with each kit including the exact fabrics you see in the video plus full color instructions, printed foundation diagrams, and stickers to label your fabrics! We'll release a brand-new wall hanging kit and video a month in advance, so you'll have plenty of time to sew and display it. Finishes to approximately 13-1/2" x 13-1/2".
The series is kicking off with a collage of four butterflies designed by Leila Gardunia, colored in bright and cheerful colors by Shabby Fabrics. This is the perfect project to display in a small area in your home to welcome your guests, and fits perfectly on the 12" French Curl Craft Holder or Stand which are available in the add-ons below.
