Hi, welcome back everyone! Sorry it's been a whole month but the editor's laptop had to be sent away for repair. Thanks to everyone that took part in the community poll for the choice of what this video would be about. No surprise English paper piecing won! So I designed a new English paper piecing quilt for you to try. It's a lovely block made from a rosette of hexagons and adding some more shapes - triangles and diamonds - the finished block will be one large hexagon. I think it's simple enough to start your EPP adventure or to add to your hand piecing repertoire.
In this video I even show clearly how to decide on sizes and how to make your own templates and papers.
You can use scraps of fabric, or even a jelly roll to make a decent size wall hanging. Enjoy! 💚

I love the effect of these plainish fabrics in this block!

Thank you Eleanor! A lovely video. You were missed! I really like English Paper piecing. It's so fun to watch your process and you're very good at explaining! Kate at the last homely house is someone you also might enjoy on KZfaq. EPP is something she's done examples of too.

I just started EPP quilting, now I have 2 in progress, a 1" Hexi and a 2" Hexi, both very scrappy with ditzy 30's and 40' reproductions. They will be very traditional. But I have gobs of wonderful wild fabrics, on the line with your choices. I had not considered them, until I started watching your channel. I had never seen the triangle paper you demonstrated until today, now I NEED to locate some of that. This is just so wonderful. Eleanor thank you for opening my eyes to more fun. By the way your sewing room is marvelous. Thank you so much.

Oh my gosh your reasoning for your colour pallette is so original! Gorgeous

And you should totally show how you make colour pallettes out of a jelly roll

It was fun to watch while you showed the problems that can be solved if we only think. Thank you.

I love this! Super impressed with how accurate the finished block is to the design. It'll be interesting to see the finished quilt next to the drawing.

Eleanor - You bring me joy and hope. Thank you so much for sharing your special skills and beautiful aesthetic with us. I usually use 1/2" seam allowance with my hexies... Less is too difficult to baste onto the paper and tough to manage. You really motivate me and you are a great teacher. I love your channel. Great videos❣I've only made 4 hexi flowers so far with cottons, using 2"- 2 1/4" forms...but I'm well on my way. 🥰🥰 🎃🖤💜🎃🖤🧡💜
