Trying to focus on a small handful of sewing proje Trying to focus on a small handful of sewing projects this year (ha ha, famous last words) and one of them is the Sugar and Spice quilt by @megancollins_a. The pattern is a mix of paper piecing and patchwork, and I did the first few blocks using standard FPP (sewing right into the paper). This weekend I pulled out my blocks and started in again, this time using the freezer paper technique (learned from a video by @kaitthemaker, you can see it on her IGTV tab). And when I tell you I am never going back ... what a revelation!! Seriously recommend. #sugarandspicequilt #fpp #freezerpaperpiecing #quiltblock #quilting #leahduncanfabric #konacottonsolids #sewing #quiltproject

Yes, yes I do. . . #themightymuddlethroughblock #theunblock #fpp #quiltblock #freequiltpattern #quiltblockpattern #victoryquilt
