my girlfriend and many at our LQS is hooked on Millefiore and they are beautiful. I don't have enough time on my hands to tackle another project. It is like another complete addiction. LOL

I am working on La Pass, it was my first ever epp, and my most intense fussy cutting (before I had done it occasionally but not like this, not repeats exactly and small pieces) It is very addictive and is easier then it looks.

I don't remember if this is my most recent group shot but it is close to it.

Another option you have is to go to Inklingo. She has somethings you might find helpful:http://www.lindafranz.com/blog/mille...nd-millefiori/.

Update: Linda also sells the Milliefiori books( http://lindafranz.com/shop/millefior...ori-quilts/171) and they are on sale. She can also fit both books in one envelope for shipping.

I forgot to mention that I am working on the Christmas Star Pattern from the first Milliefiori book.

I'm impressed with all the effort folk here have made in this quilt. I like the recommendation to fussy cut only a couple shapes in each rosette. That seems less daunting to me. I have done EPP before but saw the acute angles of the La Pass quilts and wondered how difficult they'd be. I also saw one, very stunning version, done in solids... so thinking my way to be brave in making my first rosette. I am also working on Dear Jane about 100 blocks done, had to put it aside to work on some family quilts but they are now close to completion. I think between DJ and La Pass, I'd have my hands full.
