How to Sew Piece By Number's Free Foundation Patterns

Haven't yet tried paper piecing (also known as foundation piecing), or need a refresher how-to lesson? Click here for links to paper piecing instructions on the web.

Most of Piece By Number's blocks require several sections to complete the designs. For patterns not already separated into sections, the separate sections are marked on the pattern by heavy dotted lines, and each section's pieces are noted with their own letter. You'll need to cut the paper foundation pattern into sections along the heavy dotted lines.

Foundation piece each section, following the numbers in sequence. For example, when piecing Section A, start with piece A1, then A2, A3, etc. A word or two in each piece (e.g. "petal" or "leaf") tells you what part of the design that piece is, so you can select the right color easily.

BE SURE to leave at least 1/4" of fabric around ALL section edges (not just those with the marked seam allowance) for sewing sections together. Notice the small diamonds with the two letters on the section seam lines. These may be used to help match sections properly.

Any special instructions will be on the pattern page for the block.
