I've been wanting to try English paper piecing for awhile, and decided to go ahead with it now since there will be some travel time over the next few months, both plane and long stretches in the car. I am going to make a medallion of hexagons with fabrics pulled for the April Color Palette Challenge. For once I am starting with a small project before I dive in head first! The photo shows part of the layout as I was choosing the background fabric.

I agree that storm at sea deserves the time needed, don't rush it. Then I get to look at it a while longer :) I love that quilt. I just started doing hexies too! Love your colors.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea for the color challenge. I, too, have been using this challenge for small projects: I needed to have something that actually got done. ;-)
ReplyDeleteYour Storm as Sea is stunning and you are so right to slow down and not rush. I can't get enough of admiring that quilt and the border area gives it a WOW factor!!
ReplyDeletei love your Storm at Sea. I've done a block for a swap and it was quite a challenge. you have made so many. What a great work!
ReplyDeleteA million hexagons - good luck! I made one with 2000 hexagons and it did feel like a million. Love the Storm at Sea.
ReplyDeleteThe Storm as Sea is beautiful! Definitely take your time and don't rush it!
