I'm teaching EPP

Wellington Sewing Centre has a new owner called Jo, and I've agreed to teach some English Paper Piecing (EPP) classes in their revamped teaching space.

Tumbling Colors - all from my stash

My classes start on Wednesday 27 July at 10am, and run for three sessions. There are still spaces available if you'd like to learn some tips and tricks from someone who's done her fair share of EPP.

Inner City

I'll be teaching your choice of Tumbling Colors or Inner City - both patterns by PaperPieces.com.  The good news is you don't have to cut your own papers because they are included with the patterns.


I'm hurriedly trying to whip up some samples to show different ways of combining the fabrics.  Here's where I'm up to:


It's fun seeing the pattern emerge, but I'm going to have to stop somewhere.


And here's some winter colour from my garden.  The camellias, rhododendrons and daphne are all lovely at the moment. Although it's only about 12C (53F) most days, we don't get snow where we live, so the plants continue to flower through the winter.
