This month we continued with English paper piecing (EPP). Many of our members like to have some hand sewing on the go, as it is often portable as small sections. even when making a sizeable quilt. Nearly everyone at this months meeting was working on a piece of EPP, some of which are being made into a group quilt for charity - Project Linus.
Hexagons in various sizes were the most popular.
