Experiment - EPP ball
 

I am working on a GFG, and I thought, I could use EPP for other oddly-shaped motifs as well.
So I printed out a soccer ball coloring sheet, cut up pretty fabrics, basted onto the shapes, and finally stitched them together.
Ta-dah, isn't it delicious?

I am thinking of doing many pretty balls with EPP. Haha.. but so many UFOs...!

turned out great!

Great Idea. I like it. You could sure use up some scraps.

What a clever idea! This is wonderful/ Are you making a real ball as well? I think little ones would love one to play with.

it looks hard to get balanced

Haha.. I am not doing a 3D one for now:) Just thinking of doing many 2D balls and applique-ing them into a quilt top.

It sure is a pretty soccer ball!

Cute! I like it.

That's gorgeous!

OH NO..another idea I need to try

Haha. I am begining to realise that QB is bad bad bad for UFOs! We keep getting new ideas to try!!

clever idea and it looks really great. I love EPP and done several quilts using this technique.

Okay, educate this ol' lady----what is GFG and EPP?

:o
GFG is Grandmother's Flower Garden.
EPP is English Paper Piecing.

Oh yes, this is the the soccer ball template. I guess one could choose fabrics of higher or lower contrast depending on how "soccer ball" you want it to look:)

One of these days I will try different kinds of balls. I am thinking of temari balls.

How fun! It looks great! :)
