I have been busy with my quilts and creations lately. I love to do handwork and keep my hands busy during road trips, watching TV or even on airplanes. I love, love to do English paper piecing. I started doing this about 10 years ago. I began with a 1 inch form and then caught on to the small 1/2 inch forms. These pictured are the smaller flowers because they work up so quickly. They are easy to fussy cut and the best part......is they use up my stash of extra fabric. All the centers are the same yellow fabric. These flowers need another row of white muslin to connect them for the quilt top. My hands will be busy for awhile! A friend of mine who has been watching me do these for awhile was so impressed she gave her bag of fabric scraps so I could add them to my stash. What a great friend! I LOVE fabric scraps!!!!
