This class is perfect for those who have never paper/foundation pieced or those who have tried it and were not pleased. We will walk you through the steps to make a block and to understand the reason for each step. I often hear that people think paper piecing is backwards or hard to understand. We break it down and help it all make sense. No backwards feelings with our see-through foundations. And best of all, you don't have to tear it out! We will make at least one crazy heart block in class, and you will leave wanting to make more! This is a great pattern for using up even the smallest scraps. Go crazy with color or subdued with various gradients of one color. Add embellishments for a romantic look, or a themed heart. The possibilities are endless. There are four foundation blocks included in the pattern. 

Bring you own fabric: See supply list for details.
