English Paper Piecing with Janet
We did a little hand sewing with Janet. She demonstrated her technique of EPP with 1" paper hexagons. She took 2 1/2" pieces of fabric and glued the fabric to 7 paper hexagons. Then she sewed the hexagons together in a flower pattern. Janet had a few suggestions on how to hand sew them together such as whip stitch or ladder stitch.
SHOW AND SHARE
Here are a few quilts and bags that were shared with our group:
