Missouri Star 10" Paper Piecing Squares

Whether you're new to paper piecing or have been doing it for years, the Missouri Star 10" Paper Piecing Squares give you a reliable base for scrap-based projects. Reviewers describe them as a favorite for scrap blocks, string quilts, and scrappy quilts.

Customers say the paper keeps blocks steady while you sew, so seams are less likely to pull apart as you piece blocks and rows together. Many buyers also report that the blocks come out square and consistent, which makes assembling a scrappy quilt much more relaxed.

What it's like to use

Reviewers often mention that the paper tears away easily once sewing is done, which saves time on a big stack of blocks. One reviewer said it is "light weight" and easy to trace patterns onto, and another noted that the blocks "squared up easily" after piecing.

Customers also say the paper holds up through handling and ironing without losing its shape, so it stays put while you work.

Who it suits

Quilters who love using up leftover fabric will feel right at home here. One reviewer wrote, "I love making scrappy quilts using these," and many buyers say the 10-inch size is ideal for mixing prints and colors.

Beginners get a friendly starting point, too. One customer picked it for an easy first paper piecing project, while experienced quilters use it for foundation work and appliqué.

What customers have made

Reviewers have used these squares for string quilts, Christmas strip quilts made from holiday scraps, and foundation paper piecing projects. One quilter put it simply: "Phone books, coloring pages don't give the 10" width I want for string blocks. So these are great."

Great for stabilizing scrap blocks

I love these. It stabilizes my scrap blocks. I put my blocks together on the diagonal. I used about 60 of the 10" squares. The papers held up and helped keep my edges from separating when piecing the blocks and rows together.

Perfect and so easy to use!

This product has made my project so much easier! I needed this specific size (trimmed to 9.5 x 9.5.) and the video on strip peacing on You Tube was so helpful!

Just the right size!

Love this product! Perfect for strip quilting and the 10 in ch square is a great f size for using up those craps! Wish they came in a bigger package as it did not take long to use 30/50 and I have enough strips for another quilt of equal size!

Perfect foundation for my first string quilt!

I bought these for making string quilts and am extremely happy with the results! I used a fabric glue stick to start the first center strip on each square . Easy Peasy and fun! Photo of quilt attached.

Love these things for our quilt group as we do a lot of “stripping” with donated fabric and these are great for beginners! You are the only place that sells them so we keep coming back!
