Susie Bonder, our guild President, has made the block ahead of time and wanted to share some tips with you before you get started!

April block is a fairly quick sew and a good introduction into Foundation Paper Piecing (FPP)These tips are useful for this month's block:

• Make sure you print your foundation paper pattern without any scaling.  DO NOT 'Fit to page'
• Tape together (1) each of A1-6 and A7-11 ; then do the same with the B sheets.
• I marked my pattern with color where they will align for final layout so I was not confused when piecing the A strip and the B strip.  (See photo)
• Cut your fabric as outlined in the instructions, they were spot on!
