    Default english paper piecing hexagon hand project- 1st blocks

    for a summer travel hand project i decided to work on a hexagon english paper piecing project with a group from the Quilt Pattern Magazine. here are pics of the first of my blocks- i decided to do them all in pinks, black & whites- after i finish them all i think they will make a pretty cool quilt- some of the participants are making them into mugrugs or other small complete projects- i'm just doing the blocks for now.

    WOW!!! How awesome are you! You have done a fantastic job. I love everyone of them. They look so good together. I have never done English paper piecing. I know you do it by hand, that's all I know about it. But, wonderful fabric choices!

    I love these! Really love the color combo. I may borrow this idea from you. How large across are the completed blocks?

    I love EPP. I have learned most of what I know from the website of the woman who is doing the patterns in Quilt pattern magazine. She has an excellent site with lots of free patterns. She used to do a stitch along and did some great patterns.
