Another triangle block done.  I made an alteration to this block.  The original has long slivers up each side, but I have just extended the adjacent blocks to eliminate any unnecessary aggravation during construction.

  1. Frances, can you recommend a good book for learning English Paper Piecing? It looks like a very precise technique for these intricate blocks. I see that you have actual size templates for each patch to which you have basted your fabric, but I don't understand how you keep them all aligned as you hand stitch them together.

  2. I eliminated those narrow pieces on the sides of the triangles too.

  3. I'm sure you've been asked 100 times, but when do you take the papers out? As you go or just before quilting?

  4. Beautifully done! That is definitely one complicated bit of paper piecing.
