Paper piecing isn't only for cotton fabrics anymore - flannel is here! The natural warmth and comfort of flannel makes it a perfect choice for lap and baby quilts, however, bulky seams and points made it a challenge - until now. No Stress Paper Piecing features easy-to-follow techniques, demonstrated in 175+ color photos and 100 illustrations, for paper piecing with flannel and cotton. Readers also gain insider instruction from the inventor of the essential paper-piecing tool - the Add-A-Quarter, Add-An-Eighth, and an Add-Three-Eighths ruler, who also is the author of this book. An enclosed CD contains 12 projects for use with flannel and cotton fabrics.
