Patterns, patchworks and projects
Florence of Flossy Teacakes made this stunning 17 1/4 x 17 1/4 inch quilt, then framed it as wall decor. She fussy-cut the floral fabrics and joined them to solids via EPP (English paper piecing). The resulting design reminds me of kaleidoscopes. She explains to those interested in purchasing her pattern, that it’s easily scaled up if a larger quilt is desired.
