Converting Traditional Patterns to Paper-Pieced Patterns
One of the questions I am often asked when teaching classes, is how to convert traditional patterns so they can be paper-pieced. Several years ago, I wrote a series of columns for Quilter's Newsletter Magazine and I covered this topic in part 5. The magazine has graciously given me permission to offer the pdf. of this column here. Enjoy, Carol

DAD Block To Use with the Carol Doak Keepsake Cards
With Father`s Day coming up, thought I would design another block to use inside the Carol Doak Keepsake Cards. This block says it like it is, DAD. I used scraps to make the letters colorful. The paper-pieced letters are quick and easy to make. Simply cut the number of scrap and white fabric pieces and go for it. The finished square size is 3" and is perfect for inside the the Carol Doak Keepsake Card. Add your personal message to your Dad and this will surely be a keepsake for him for years to come. I made this in about an hour from start to finish.
