Default First Time EPP
Since my sewing machines are in storage, I decided to try my hand at English Paper Piecing. I'm very happy with the process, not so much with my ability to "randomize" color placement. The hexies are 1 inch on a side.

I think this is very unique and very pretty. Great job. We all have our own ideas and there are no rules to place your colors in a certain place. Too much time is put on perfection and not enough time in the joy of quilting

It took not quite 10 weeks to reach this point. Just don't ask me how many pieces there are... My math skills are so bad I can't even figure out how to count hexies LOL!

10 weeks? I don't think I could do this in 10 years! It looks great to me.
