I did buy the book and it has really helped me. I just have one rosette done. I did part of it EPP and the other part without the papers. Once I heard you say no papers I wanted to try it. So I know I can do this without the papers and I know it will take awhile. I am going to work on it in-between two other projects that I must finish. I usually stay focused on one project at a time but I just had to see if I could sew these little pieces together. I will use my stash for this and I really think the books helps about the design and all. It is expensive tho. Your quilt is lovely and I love to see you are using scraps. It encourages me.
