DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ENGLISH AND
FOUNDATION PIECING.
THERE IS A DIFFERENCE.
WE ARE GOING TO LEARN THAT.
SHOW US YOUR QUILTS.
>> WE WILL START WITH THE
ENGLISH PAPER PIECING, OR AS WE
CALL IT, EPP, LOT TO SAY.
IT IS HAND OZ SEWN.
WHAT %BACK
>> LOOK AT THE FACE!
>> WHAT YOU ARE DOING IS CUTTING
AND LIKE A HEXAGON.
IT IS EXTREMELY PRECISE.
SEW THEM TOGETHER, THERE YOU GO.
A GREAT TAKE-ALONG PROJECT, ALL
SHAPES AND SIZES.
>> I SEE YOU HAVE A PLASTIC,
REUSABLE --
>> THIS IS MY J -- THIS IS MYLA.
MOST USE PAPER.
>> THIS IS THE TINIEST --
>> QUARTER INCH.
>> GRANDMOTHER'S FLOWER GARDEN.

ARE FAMILY WITH GRANDMOTHER'S
FLOWER GARDEN.
>> YOU CAN DO THIS IN THE CAR,
PLANE.

>> IT IS PRECISION.
YOU BASE IT AROUND.
>> YEP.
>> ONE AT A TIME, BASE AROUND
THE SHAPE.
>> YEP.
>> THEN INDIVIDUALLY AND STITCH
TOGETHER.

HAND-SEWING.
GOES TOGETHER FASTER THAN YOU
THINK IT WILL.
>> LOOK AT THE SIZE.
>> THESE ARE ONE-HALF INCH.
THIS IS BASED ON A QUILT FROM
THE 1870s.
THESE ARE ALL DIFFERENT SHAPES.
WE HAVE DIAMONDS, SEVEN-POINT
STAR, ALL KINDS OF DIFFERENT
SHAPES, SO IT IS NOT JUST
HEXAGONS.
>> WONDERFUL.
SO THIS IS ENGLISH PAPER
PIECING.
>> THAT IS ALL ENGLISH PAPER
PIECING.
MOVING ON, I TOO MUCH A LOT, BUT
THIS IS FOUNDATION PAPER
PIECING.
THEY WILL SAY " PAPER PIECING "
BUT NOT SURE WHICH YOU MEAN.
THESE ARE DONE ON THE MACHINE.
WITH THESE YOU GET THE VERY
PRECISE POINTS THAT ARE HARDER
TO GET WITH ALMOST ANY OTHER
METHOD.
>> YOU ARE FAMOUS FOR THIS.
>> I KNOW, I LOVE THIS.
I'M ACTUALLY TEACHING THIS CLASS
AT THE SHOW THIS WEEK.
SO I HAVE TWO CLASSES TODAY AND
TOMORROW.
ONE ON SATURDAY.

THEY GET PRETTY FAR ALONG AND
FINISH AT HOME?
>> YES, FINISH AT HOME.
>> A THREE-HOUR WORKSHOP.
>> RIGHT.
IT IS A TECHNIQUE CLASS.
I DON'T SEW THROUGH BUT SHOW A
SIDE.
SO WHEN YOU ARE DONE, INSTEAD OF
RIPPING OUT THE PAPER -- HERE WE
GO.
IT WILL JUST ACTUALLY JUST PEEL
RIGHT OFF.
>> THERE YOU GO.
>> PEELS RIGHT OFF.
>> NEXT TO IT, NOT THROUGH.
>> EXACTLY.
>> SO THAT IS A TECHNIQUE I
TEACH.
YOU CAN SEE, THIS IS JUST A LOG
CABIN, BASIC STYLE.
YOU CAN SEE THAT IS THE SAME
BASICALLY AS THIS ONE.
BUT BY PUTTING THEM TOGETHER IN
DIFFERENT WAYS, THEY FORM ALL
DIFFERENT KINDS OF SHAPES.
SO %BACK
