I do English paper piecing when i'm not at my machine. These are the same as my moms larger size in an earlier post. She is 80 yrs old and must do the larger size. The pincushions I've made travel as easy as the small pieces i work on, needless to say i have one in every room of the house and my car.

This is my own pattern, I can do a drawing and attach it with the sizes, they are all a little different.

The paper piece hexagons are 3/4"

Some tie and some have buttons, just depends on what i have available.

these are my pattern, all a little different. I can give you the sizes info if you pm me.
