E Using scissors placed between paper and fabric, trim seam allowance to 1/4" if needed. When adding light fabrics, trim dark fabrics narrower to avoid shadowing. F Press seam allowance flat from fabric side, then flip tan triangle to cover #2 position and press again. Note: If you have photocopied the foundation, avoid touching the printed side with iron. Toner will melt and transfer to your iron and fabrics. Continue to place, stitch, trim, flip and press remaining fabrics in numerical order to finish foundation. G Note: Do not cut fabric along edge of paper! Turn foundation, paper side up, and align 1/4" mark of ruler along edge of paper foundation. Rotary cut away extra fabric on all sides, creating a perfect 1/4" seam allowance. Leave paper in place! H Lengthen stitch to normal sewing setting (10-12 stitches per inch) and sew foundations together along edge of paper. I Use 4 square foundations to complete one block and 2 triangular foundations to complete one half block. Leave paper in until quilt has been assembled. Piece by Piece Index
