EPP blocks from a class I took on Craftsy.
These are the blocks we made in class. I will be putting them together into a 9 block sampler. I modified some of the blocks because I didn’t like the original layouts. I had a lot of fun making these blocks.
If you’re looking for a good book on English Paper Piecing I highly recommend All Points Patchwork: English Paper Piecing beyond the Hexigon for Quilts and Small Projects.

I started watching Kate on The Last Homely House . She is a wonderful, down-to-earth woman living in the north of England. After watching many of her EPP videos I couldn’t resist trying it. Now I am hooked.
