The other thing - EPP

There were times when I didn't know what EPP means:

English paper piecing. But I did it already 20 years ago.

And now again - you saw the beginnings - and this one

really looks like I made it 20 years ago - when little flowers

on fabrics were in.

Well these fabrics are as old as that. Nearly all of them.

At first I didn't like what I created. But now that it is finished

it looks quite nice....

... after quilting. Through the middle of the elongated hexagons.

And look at those corners. I think it is a good solution.

Funny, aren't they?

  5. I recognize a couple of those fabrics, Anneliese. EPP was one of the first hand quilting things I ever attempted. Yours has come up beautifully with all it's little florals. It is a nice pattern.
