Thank you for the link. English paper piecing is on my list of methods to learn, so any and all tips will help!

thanks for sharing the link

Sue Daley is the best for EPP, imho. i learned so much from her tutorials. TFS.
peace

Yes, Sue is definitely why I tried hexies....love the glue pen! But I like the acrylic templates from paperpieces.com better, the seam allowance of 3/8".... Wouldn't think that would make a difference, but it does..to me anyway..either glueing or basting is much easier with that extra bit of fabric...love her knicker Knots!

wonder if MSCQ will be a dealer for her patterns, notions?

Thanks for the link. That is one thing I will do in 2017. I've got the little paper pieces all set - have the fabric squares - just need to jump in. This tutorial will definitely help!

What is everyone planning to do? Mine are 1" hexies......still not sure what I'm making? But, need a "traveling" project to do in the car while traveling.

What are your various project ideas for hexies?

Been working on Grandmother's flower garden with 1930's reproduction fabrics since 2009 - can you believe it? It's my therapy I'm hand piecing with quiltpatis - plastic templates.

MSQC does carry her products. I wrote and requested MSQC create a kit to accompany the tutorial. I received a response the suggestion will be considered. We'll see.

The pattern by Sue includes two thread catchers, a needle case and a pin cushion. You could create pot holders, mug rugs, frame the flower the list goes on. And as Beachbaby suggested you could start a Grandmothers flower garden quilt.

Beachbaby12 my first GFG took we 10 years from start to finish and those were 2in. hexies. I didn't paper piece it I just cut the hexies out and sewed them using a 1/4 inch ruler (it is a ruler that is 6 inches long and a 1/4 inch squared). My quilt was suppose to be for a Queen bed, but it is big enough for a King. I am now working on a 1 in. hexies using the EPP method. I have no idea what I am really going to do with all of the flowers yet. Right now I am just making them. I have made a bunch with batik fabric and a bunch with regular quilt fabric that I have - not sure if I like them mixed together. (Still have a a bunch of flowers from my first quilt I didn't need and there is enough for a throw. And I can't decide on a background fabric.) Every so often I think about getting rid of them, but just can't quite let them go, even though it has been 17 years since I finished the first quilt. They are so nice because you can take them anywhere.
