Paper Piecing: Vintage Kite
Paper piecing, also known as foundation piecing, is a technique for creating shapes, angles, and sharp points that can't be done using regular piecing techniques. The Vintage Kite quilt block is from a past era, but stitching it with this foundation paper is a completely new experience.
