A Bit of Whimsy

As much as I love English Paper Piecing (EPP), I have to admit that cutting all those paper shapes can feel daunting, and I know I am not the only one who feels that way. You can now buy pre-cut papers in almost every shape and size, but that means waiting for them to arrive, and I am not very good at waiting when inspiration strikes. Sometimes you also can’t find exactly what you are looking for, like the tiny 1/4" hexagons I often use in smaller makes. That’s why I prefer making my own papers at home - it gives me full control over the shapes I need and exactly how many I print.
