PLANNING A REPRODUCTION
Using the technique of paper foundation piecing allows accurate assembly of each 11-piece arc, assuring that arcs fit the large muslin pieces. The paper remains intact until the other shapes are sewn to the arcs—only then is the paper gently torn away. Pieces do not have to be cut precisely for foundation piecing but cut large enough to trim seam allowances after seams are sewn. Stitch a practice arc to determine exactly how generous your pieces of fabric must be cut.

CUTTING INSTRUCTIONS
Note: See Piecing the Block instructions for cutting foundation fabrics.
