I'd love to start doing paper piecing, but I'm just not sure how to begin. Does anyone know of a site or instructions?

Thanks

Hi Jenn,

There's a lot of different ways to paper piece. I taught myself by tracing a picture, then breaking it down into pieces. It was a lot of work, but I liked the look. If you go to www.twopeasinabucket.com there will probably be instructions under resources. Also, if you post a question, most of the more experienced peas will help you.

BTW, I live in Billerica too.

I do it the same way as Lisa.

Definitely check 2peas. As a matter of fact, right now in the gallery (if you do a search by category), take a look under the "Disney" category. I think they're on page 2, but someone has posted some AWESOME paper piecings!!!

Start with a coloring book page(you may have to re-size it (I scan and then reduce the size) I then print out several copies and cut up individual pieces(like a sewing pattern) I then trace each individual piece onto cardstock, cut it out and piece the paper back together. Accent with colered pens and chalk!
