Do you love bright, geometric quilt designs but wonder how to get
such sharp points and accurate piecing? English paper piecing is
the answer and this collection shows you how to sew your own
patchwork projects even if you've never made a quilt before.
English paper piecing (EPP) is a traditional patchwork technique
which uses hexagon-shaped paper templates which are pieced together
by hand sewing rather than machine piecing. This process of hand
piecing is both mindful and calming and the fact that it doesn't
rely on a sewing machine makes EPP the perfect 'sofa sewing'
project that can be done while relaxing in front of your favourite
TV show or while socialising with friends. Jenny Jackson is an
expert in EPP and has been demonstrating the technique and
showcasing her patterns on TV craft channels and magazines for a
number of years. She has created this collection of techniques and
patterns for modern EPP projects for the home including some really
striking, large quilts. Jenny holds your hand through the EPP
process so, even if you've never tried it before, you can complete
projects to be proud of. Even if you already have some experience
with EPP, Jenny shares her tips and tricks for quicker and sharper
results so you can improve your skills. There are 18 projects for
the home in a variety of sizes so you can build up to a full-sized
quilt but you can also dip in and out of some smaller projects such
as coasters, wall hangings and cushions while you hone your skills.
The projects include repeats of EPP patterns and blocks as well as
how to use EPP blocks and rosettes as applique within quilts and
other projects. It's not just about the hexagon either: Jenny's
geometric designs feature 20 different paper pieced templates
including diamonds, octagons and even curved shapes for really
exciting results. These sheets can be photocopied to give you
multiple templates, fast. You can even flex your own creative
muscle with the colouring pages included for every project so you
can experiment with your own colour combinations to make your own
unique designs.
