English Paper Piecing...for the 1st time!

So, while browsing the blogs one day I 

stumbled upon one of my blogs that I always 

read and it was Sandra Kaye, she 

was showing how she started a new hand piecing project for while she is laid up on the couch with a bum leg...you can check out her blog here:

sandrakaydesigns.blogspot.com

Anyways, she was not just doing any ole hand piecing project, she wasn't doing boring old hexagons...she was doing Plus signs!

Oh my gosh, how cute! 

Insert happy dance here!

I emailed her and asked her how the EPP was done and she was nice enough to show a little tutorial on her blog...and the rest is history!

So of course, I had to join her..so instead of shopping my stash like I should have, I went out 

and bought a bunch of fat quarters that

I liked together and this is what has happened!

My grandaughter Jayden was playing with that 

Santa Claus tin, when it was time for her to go home I asked her if Granny could use it for her new project...she said "sure Granny"...so now it

holds all my tools for my on the go hand piecing project, its a perfect fit for all my goodies!

I have about 20 done so far, I have added in 

some other colors but you can get the idea of how 

it is done and laid out...at this point I have no clue how these little plus signs are sewn together but Sandra assured me that she would show me

how so that should be interesting...LOL!

Thanks for stopping by today!
