English Paper Piecing (EPP) is a hand piecing technique where pieces of fabric are adhered to a piece of paper before they are hand sewn together. EPP offers quilters the ability to showcase fabrics with the use of fussy cutting to sew intricate designs. In June, we will begin working on “Blossie Basket.” “Blossie Basket” by Craftapalooza Designs is made of eight quilt-as-you-go hexagons that are pieced together into a bowl with an optional lid to store sewing essentials, threads, or treasures.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"\u003eIn June, we will also begin our year-long EPP project “Blue Star Hexagon” by Karen Styles.
