I said I would, and I did...
When the Retreat edition of Fat Quarterly came out last week I printed out Kerry's little freezer paper-pieced house straight away.
A bit of life and other stuff got in the way of my eager plans, but I have now built my own little home...
I tried really hard to go with the freezer paper - I even managed the Y-seams, (although one side was a lot easier than the other - is that always the way?). But I have serious doubts that this method is for me.
I now love, love, love foundation paper-piecing, however I just don't quite gel with this. I like to use freezer paper to cut my fabric when foundation piecing, and that works really well, but I just couldn't get the accuracy I have grown to love this time. Nothing to do with the freezer paper dropping off, having been ironed on and removed a dozen time in the fabric auditions, I'm sure!
So in the end it may be a little bit wonky, but I still think it's cute.
