I used paperpieces.com bought the book, acrylic pieces, "five small packs" of paper pieces for the La Passacaglia and paid about $105 which included shipping. I was a little confused about which acrylic template pieces and paper pieces I needed and the woman on the phone was very helpful in picking the correct ones for the quilt I knew I wanted to make. If you don't know which quilt out of the book you want, then you can order the book and decide which of the quilts you want before ordering the templates and paper pieces.

I showed my book, acrylic templates, and papers at guild when everyone was auditioning patterns for a guild challenge quilt project. We pick one every two years. I was told I was crazy to spend that much money and of course mine got voted down. I really need to find a non poverty guild. LOL Sewing the pieces are addictive. I love it.

I ordered the same pack as CindyA plus I got 20% off. That didn't include the book though. There was more than plenty paper pieces.
Just my 2cents I think MassDrop is closer to mass hysteria
When I finished my quilt I sold it all, including the book, on to someone else who wanted to do the quilt for what I paid for it all. She told me the other day she has finished and sold the works on to a third person. Green Quilting!

I cut my own using the templates. My friends and I sit, trace and cut for an afternoon and have enough to keep us going until we meet again. Someone posted on Facebook that they had custom dies made for the Go to cut the fabric and one to cut the templates. Good idea. Inklingo is good. Several of my friends use that.
