Book Description

Maybe you have the urge to sew but don't want to be stuck behind your sewing machine all the time. English paper piecing quilting is wonderfully portable. You can stitch on the train, bus, or airplane, in waiting rooms, in the car while your baby naps, or at the beach - all the stolen moments when your hands are idle. Learn to build a tool kit with everything you need to get stitching. When you're done, just snap it shut and your project is safe and waiting for when you're ready to sew again.

Press

British Patchwork & Quilting, May 2019

This very popular book has been reprinted six times since 2013 and is one of the nicest books on English Paper Piecing (EPP). It has some lovely fresh ideas and patterns. Anyone just beginning EPP will find it easy to follow. For those already into EPP they will find some new shapes and combination of patterns interesting and different.

There is very good information on fabric use, colours, stitches and edges and borders. It also has ten projects, a good index, template patterns and ten pages of graph paper for trying out your own colour scheme.
