I love doing English Paper piecing. Thank you for this video...😊

You are welcome!

I love this block, but it looks so intimidating. One day I will try it. Thank you for showing it

[@jessica_dayon]

You should try it! It really isn't difficult at all- just take it one step at a time and watch the video as much as you need. Also you can refer to Block 2 (Courthouse steps) because that is paper piecing too and its a bit easier. You could try that one first.

[@rosereedcrochets]

@@jessica_dayon I will definitely try it. Wish me luck 🤞

Beautiful block. I’ve always wondered how it was made with paper piecing. It’s stunning! Thank you!

[@jessica_dayon]

Glad you like it!

[@dadams512]

Great tutorial. This block is stunning!

[@jessica_dayon]

Thank you so much!

Beautiful block! FPP is one of those things that I have a hard time keeping straight in my brain because it's backwards sort of.

[@jessica_dayon]

It definitely gets easier with practice!

Beautiful choice of fabrics for this block. Would have liked to see how you started the center of the block and how you lined up the pieces to sew

[@jessica_dayon]

I know!! I thought I videoed the whole thing but my camera must have stopped recording at some point! What a pain but I couldn’t do it again because I was going out of town. If you want to see a very similar beginning, go to the courthouse steps block. They start the same way. Sorry about that!!

Do you quilt your own quilts? Thanks for the quilt along!

[@jessica_dayon]

In the beginning, I sent them out but for the past 3-4 years, I've quilted them myself.

Hi Jessica, I am enjoying your scrappy quilt along sampler, I am excited to say that my curves are coming out very nicely. Thank you for including them. It is stretching my repertoire. I am working on block number six, can you give sizing of the flying geese blocks and the square triangle blocks. I am working on it without using the template and I want to make sure I have my sizing correct before cutting the squares down. Thank you.

[@jessica_dayon]

I’m so glad you are enjoying the sew along and that it is helping develop your skills. The reason that block 6 has templates is because the sizes are not a size that you’d be able to cut with a regular ruler (they go to the 16th). If you can’t use the templates, I think the best thing to do is substitute another block that finishes at the same size.

I have a request for this block pattern but in a 16" block size. What's the best way to increase the size?

[@jessica_dayon]

I don't think there is a best way to enlarge it. You'd need to design it yourself on a computer program as a 16" block.

Do you use regular printer paper

[@jessica_dayon]

I do. You can buy foundation paper piecing paper but I generally use regular printer paper.
