A while ago Jackie got me a starter pack of templates for the La Passacaglia EPP quilt. Do you know the one I mean? It's this really beautiful one - I've added lots of them to a Pinterest Board
I've been putting it off, as there are so many pieces, and so many decisions to make! I *finally* got all the shapes out and sorted them
And then I arranged them to create one of the bigger shapes. There is a book, but I'm hoping to have a go based on looking at photos
Great as far as that goes, but this is a long term project so it's going to have to sit around for a while as I progress, and I was worried I might lose pieces in the meantime. So I've had a go at ironing them into freezer paper: they have stuck and seem to be happy to peel off as I need them, so I think I am, gulp, ready to start on the first shape
Well, ready to consider fabrics anyway
To recover from the stress of thinking about maybe starting this, I made a few purses - I feel calmer now!
I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome! Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.
