  2. I’d love to win a copy of All Points Patchwork. Diane’s instructions are always so clear. I haven’t done English Paper Piecing for years, but it’s beginning to tempt me.

  4. I’m fairly new to EPP, having started about 2 years ago. I fell in love with it from the very first hexagon. There’s a zen to the process, a rhythm, a progression. My hands are busy with easily completed needlework and my mind can either vegetate or ponder. 🙂

    I love EPP because it’s such a wonderfully portable craft. I stitch in the car on road trips, in the waiting room for appointments, at Little League games, guild meetings, family functions, vacations. At then end of all those down times, I have something concrete to show for the time spent.

    Eventually, a wonderful quilt .. or whatever .. will be created. A legacy from me.
