brimfield block
Has anyone done it yet?
It's an EPP block from Paperpieces.com. it's very pretty and was just wondering if anyone was doing it and in what color combinations. if you are, can you please show us a picture? I got the papers as a Christmas gift, and am not sure how i want to do it yet. |
I haven't EPP yet but that is an awesome block. You'll have so many color options to chose from with that block. It can even be a scrappy block. yellow, grey, black color scheme would look cool.

That's a pretty block. I'll be looking forward to seeing what you do with it.

i'm not sure yet. i might do it in bright scraps on Kona white.
I just finished an EPP 2" 60 degree diamond in aquas and blues, and a dog bone in 1" hexes. all brights on white. I'd love to post a picture of them, but i read someplace once we post a photo, it's the QB's to do whatever they seem fit to do. If this information is incorrect, someone please tell me. |
That is a beautiful block. I wish I did EPP. I never will as I hate hand sewing.

Just saw a posting on Pinterest, but it didn't have a center, just a hollow ring, pretty, but odd......ill have to research further....I may order from PP...yet another project!
lynne----- you got as a Christmas present...not fair! You opened your gift early! Just kidding! |
Lynnie- can you send it to my email address? I'm dying to see it!!!!!!
I sent it to you awhile ago :) |
GriB and SusieOH, it's an applique after the wreaths are made. I will hand quilt it in the center, and sew them together . then I'll quilt between, it's great for a quilt as you go project. If you go to ...paperpieces.com, you'll see it there. it's called a Brimfield block. I don't know how to ttach it, i would if i could. so sorry. It's great for a QAYG. because the last few quilts were the type that had to be quilted as one piece, and i'm fresh out of money now. if someone can ttach it. please do.

I see there is also a center piece available, or leave as a open space, with this brimfield block forming a wreath like design around it...I'm guessing that once one finishes the eep portion, all papers have to be removed and it is then appliquéd to a background. I see where paperpieces is offering it as a bom for upcoming year.
|
my friend was generous and got me all the pieces at once. i will applique it down to white fabric, and hand quilt it.
thanks for posting the link, i don't know how to do that. yes after each 'wreath' is done, i press it very well and take out the paper pieces to use again. |
I just looked, and it's a very pretty block.
