Paper Piecing question
#61
I have been paper piecing for about a year and a half. I don't use any ruler! I just eyeball it and fold the paper, cut off the excess of the prior fabric piece and keep going. I've done hundreds of paper pieced squares. The scrappy quilt that is my avatar is paper pieced. I even made a full size bed quilt that had more than 20 pieces per block.

I am on my first PP'ing project right now. I did not purchase anything extra. Printed the pattern from the internet, grab my fabrics and thread. Watched a few videos too.
the pattern I am using has the 1/4 lines right there to guide me.

Don't tell the quilt police, but I just grab my scissors & slice off an approximate ¼"" seam allowance. It doesn't really make alot of difference if you are going to be using the printed line on your paper as your guide, BUT if you want to use the ¼" seam allowance as your guide, the I think that particular ruler would be very helpful.
