About Complexity

This is an intermediate pattern intended for those who already know the basics of foundation paper piecing or confident beginners.
The larger the block, the more space and time it will require, both for gluing and for fabric assembly.
If you're newer to the technique, the 30x30" version offers a smoother introduction with less bulk and prep.
