Getting my EPP quilt out again

😱 OMG what have I done.

Seeing all my hexis that I’ve cut out together laid out rather than in a box is pretty intimidating. I’m not sure how many I have, I don’t think I want to know 😱 Just got to embrace the process and accept, this isn’t a quick project.

I’ve been slowly making this since 2020 lockdown, see previous blog for more information. What I’ve completed so far is hanging on my living room wall.

Ignore my stupid face and hair 🫣

I decided to make one of each hexi, as I’d bought some new fabric and hope it’ll go nicely with what I have already.

I was trying to decide how best to approach getting all these backed onto paper with losing the will to live. What I have been doing is making up a few in all the different fabrics and then making a few hexi flowers and starting again, before seeing all the hexi flower together.

This time I’ve decided to just keep a stash of one of the types of ready cut hexis in a box with everything I need to back them. So now I can just whip that out and make a couple as and when I feel like it.

EPP Kit

Seems less intimidating to do it this way, rather than getting the whole lot out each time.

So I’ve got 12 different fabrics now, I like how they all look together 😍 These are the samples I made to make sure they were all ok, and that the new fabrics fitted in with the original fabric I bought 3 years ago 😱

Embrace the slow process.
