Yesterday I spent the day resting and finishing up laundry from the trip. Monday was a busy day, so it was nice to have a quieter day. In the quilt room, I decided to keep it simple.
My small EPP piece is sewn together. Once I remove all the papers, I’ll attached it to the pillow background.
The fabrics I chose for this EPP were from my stash and purposely chosen for practice. I don’t have many fabrics in my stash that work well for fussy cutting. The leaf fabric was the best I had. The pillow background will be tan, and I think that will set off this motif well. This is the Pollen Pillow pattern by Night Quilter that was came with The Quilter’s Planner this year.
I have been watching some class videos on Bluprint (no affiliate). One of my favorite classes is by Joe Cunningham entitled Pattern Free Quilting. Now seemed to be a good time to try a few of his concepts, so I played a bit with some fabrics from my stash. Here’s a little sneak peek.
More about this fun quilt on Friday. See you then!

Those EPP pieces look so tiny. It’s fun how you made them into kaleidoscopes. Can’t wait to see your next up quilt!
I can’t wait for Friday to see more of your quilt.
Thank you for giving me something to look forward to on Friday;)
thanks for mentioning that class – I hadn’t watched that one and put it on my list – I like the look of straight lines – not that I have a quilt top finished right now that is the right size for me to tackle with my sewing machine LOL but I will watch the class and keep it in mind
Looking forward to seeing your reveal on Friday — the sneak preview looks great — love the colors.
Hi Wendy! Wow your fussy cutting and EPP piece looks great. Lots of little pieces there! Your sneak peek looks fun, too, and I love that nice straight line quilting. ~smile~ Roseanne
This is all looking so good. Can’t wait to see your Friday show!
Home sweet home! I hope you both really enjoyed the road trip. That EPP project looks wonderful – such tiny pieces!!
Your EPP piece turned out so cute. That was a good project for the road. I like what I’m seeing in your peek.
“Pattern free” is intriguing! Tell us more 🙂
You are DrEAMi-ing again I see! Love that green! And wow on the EPP, so gorgeous!
I think the fussy cutting on your EPP piece turned out great! Those look like tiny pieces, too. A pillow seems like the perfect spot to show off the pretty design you made!
Love your EPP piece, it’s going to look stunning!
Wendy, I’ve never seen fussy cut hexies done so interestingly and perfectly! Just beautiful:)
