EPP fantastic work Nikki I love the colours you are so right use all your small pieces of fabric to create something just like you have. Waist nothing thsnk you for sharing stitch sisters 😊 😊 ❤ ❤
I only just watched this as tempted to give it a go; odd thing is I just dreamed about a big floppy 70s style sun hat made out of scraps just like this!
My mother inherited her great-grandmother's hexagonal quilt, which was made from old cotton ties and boxer shorts. I'm a block quilter and was always fascinated at how these quilts are pieced together. I would stare at the pieces trying to reverse engineer those beautiful corners! In America, this is type of quilting is out of vogue, so I could never find a book in any library craft section with instructions. I didn't even know what this type of quilting was called until I stumbled upon this video today! I'm so grateful to you for creating this video. I'm so grateful to finally know how to do this. But, at the same time, it's a bitter sweet moment, because I mourn over all the EPP quilts I could've made over the last 25 years.
I am just starting a hexagon quilt. I have lots of scraps from all the masks I’ve made in the last few months and when I need more, I’ll look for a jelly roll that’s already 2-1/2” wide. I’m also using squares like you (lot less cutting) but my basting is not going through the paper and it’s holding very well. And I love that you’re not using glue. Thank you for sharing your techniques and I can’t wait to see how to finish a quilt like this!❤️
Squeak. You have made me want to make a quilt! I love your scrappy ones and especially the random nature. Yay you! Also marvellous because I share your need to use ALL the fabric! I take my small unuseable scraps to our charity shops, who sell them as rags, I think they end up as insulation. So absolutely none of my fabric goes in the bin. Some of my nicer scraps I give to my daughters school for the kids art projects. Thank you for this, I may start my first quilt on our family holiday!
Wow! What very beautiful quilts you’ve made!! And, you’re both very easy to listen to, so this was great fun watching this video!! I hope to watch more of your channel!! Thanks!!
Oh wow you might have converted me - I always stayed away from quilting as it looked so fiddly but Nikki made it appear genuinely enjoyable, I might give it a go some time!
making my first one, i feel like this is like pulling weeds, which i find therapeutic...probably not a good analogy for others, but i find this a quiet activity that allows me to daydream, so relaxing, like embroidery.
What was the most fun about watching/learning you EPP technique was the sparkle in your eyes about how much you enjoyed making the hexagons/quilts! How wonderful to make a beautiful quilt from scraps. From what I can see, you likely put batting (I think you call it wadding) and a backing fabric and tied the quilt in intervals to hold it together rather than quilting it on a long arm machine. BTW - I just LOVED to see your interview on That Sewing Blab. Love your videos. Go ahead - keep inspiring me!
Thank you so much for this video. It bought back so many memories of making quilts with my mum & sisters & I've been wondering for ages how to recreate one. I never knew it was called EPP!! So glad I've now got a use for my scraps xx
That was brilliant, Nikki. Never thought about quilting as being so easy. I imagined it'd be complicated machine sewing. I may even be tempted to try it, on a small scale 😬, to see how I go. Love you two and your vlogs! 💕
Nikki, it was such a lovely treat to see your beautiful quilts! Thank you for sharing them and for showing how EPP is done. Enjoyed seeing you both on That Sewing Blab!
Thanks for the detailed and easy to follow instructions! EPP is fascinating me and given how much I enjoy hand sewing and using up scraps, I'll definitely give it a try in the future and then refer back to this video.
I'm so happy this video popped up when I was sewing. My friend from church found out she and her husband are having a baby girl and I wanted to make a quilt but was afraid it was going to be to overwhelming. You explained it amazingly. I'm going to give it a try. Thank you so much
Beautiful quilts! Obviously all made with love. I must admit I use the sewline fabric glue pen to attach the fabric to the card, as the fabric peels off later when you want to remove the card and you can still re use it. Love all your videos, thanks! x
Hi Ladies Thank you so much for this tutorial x I have been wanting to have a go at EPP and your video has given me the confidence to have a go. With the winter ❄️ coming on I can’t wait to give it a go and being a bee 🐝 keeper the winter is a great time to try it out 😊I have so many bee 🐝 fabric scraps that I’m going to use them 😌thank again 🧵✂️🧵
I loved your tutorial. Very clear explanation. I save the light pieces of cardboard that stockings come wrapped around to make paper pieces. You can buy hexagon/ pentagon/ square/ triangle... Templates online. To hold the fabric while your sewing you can also use little "sew tite magnets" on Amazon too. Please let Macy's be on camera! Fluffy babies are wonderful !❤️
Very informative. I’ve been wondering how it all went together. I’ve made a log cabin quilt but have wondered about this type of quilt. Now I will be able to give it a try. Thank you for your careful instructions.
Beautiful Quilts, it brought back many memories of when I was 12, making a bag and purse from the hexagons and paper. I don’t make quilts but I sew lots now, I guess we always carry our creativity with us, throughout of lives, thanks for showing us 😊
What an excellent video - I am looking forward to trying this and maybe for starters, will make a large table mat. Thanks for sharing - love you guys !
Traditionally here in Ireland we baste our fabric around our paper shapes without stitching through the paper.... Greetings cards are great to use for cutting out the hexagons.
I just printed and fussy cut my first hexagons. Tomorrow I will start collecting scraps of 100% cotton to start my first English Paper Piecing project!
Oh Nikki thank you SO much for explaining properly how to do EPP. I never even knew how to cast off my threads like that until I watched you, either! I’ve wanted something to do in the evenings for ages where I can sit in the same room as my hubby lol! This is perfect, in fact I’m just finishing a blouse and guess what the scraps are going to become very shortly! Thanks again, this video was fab and I’ll look forward to seeing how you finish your quilts soon x
Just wondering if you lovely ladies would consider doing a part 2, to show what you do once you have all your hexagons together at the size you want. All your explanations are so brilliantly clear (on all your vids!) And I would love to know what I do now I have all my flowers together 😂😂😂 💕💕
WHAT?! Wow! Thank you. Just found you yesterday so very excited for the response. Will 100% watch the other video. (btw, your inst post was bright & cherry, perfect for a dreary January day) xoxo
Hi ladies. New subscriber here. I loved this video. You explain everything so well. I am inspired by you both. Will sit with a cuppa and catch up with some more. Thanks for sharing. Regards Lesley x
A brilliant explanation.Would you,please, be able to show how you finish the whole quilt.They were beautiful and it's lovely to think future generations will enjoy them-history in a quilt.
As I can see others have asked I would love to know how to finish it as I know that seems to be quite an involved process. Thank you so much for this video. It was so clear and your tips were very helpful. Elly.xxx
You have just prompted me to get my hexi quilt back out that I started last year, I love how relaxing it is to Hand Sew them and the small Hexi’s are my fave too. I use freezer paper to do the paper piecing as it presses to temporarily fuse to the fabric and a role goes a very long way ☺️ great video thankyou 💖
Wow I always was wondering how to make those, now I have to start attacking my pile of cotton scraps! You have magical fingers! Thank you so much for this vlog! I have a quilt in process but my hubby said it is to noisy in the living room LOL! Imagine a little featherweight too noisy! But now I can give this a go! Christine ;-)
What a fabulous tutorial! I’m definitely going to try this and so excited to give it a go. Your quilts are so beautiful 😍 The red white and blues my fav xxx
Well that was just fabulous. TBH I have not had the enthusiasm for quilting as I much prefer to wear my sewing, but this was exciting to see and I am now conflicted as to whether I sit by son's bedside for 7 days in hospital next week knitting a cardy (my new found hobby for chillaxing on the sofa in front of tv) or whether I now be the obsessed lady cutting little hexagons out and wrapping them up in fabric as I have a couple of big bags of scrap fabric that I had no idea what to do with and chucking them in the bin seemed so sacreligeous, obviously I was waiting for this video! Thanks ladies for this visit into quiltmania.
What a fantastic tutorial!! Sara Lawson, from Sew Sweetness, also does EPP and makes small pouches with them. Love the idea of combining bag making with EPP!!
Wow, these are beautiful, I'm in awe of your patience too! I also quilted prior to garment sewing but I went the machine way. I always loved handsewing the binding on however and did find hand sewing very relaxing. I know what you mean about wanting to do something with all the scraps which are generated from sewing clothes, when I first started sewing clothes I felt horrified about how not every last piece of fabric is used!
I got back into sewing via quilting when I lived in Saudi and loved it - still do 😁 although not tried paper piecing.....yet. I haven't mastered machine quilting either so all of mine are hand quilted which takes time but I love the finished look of them. Really enjoyed this vlog and it's so lovely to see how enthusiastic and supportive you are of each other. So glad I'm not the only one that keeps practically every scrap of fabric 👍🤗🤗
You can do it as you start to sew your flowers together. I usually sew a few together then take out all the papers at once. You should always leave the papers in the hexies around the edge.
Thank you so much for this video!! I got into sewing a year or so ago and have quilted two tops by machine. I’m plucking up the courage to try FMQ on them. I only tried dress making this year after finding Tilly and the buttons patterns in John Lewis. Think I’ll give EPP a second go after watching your video as the basting stitch looks easier than I ever imagined
The grandmother's flower garden usually has one round of background fabric around the flowers. During the early part 9h the 1940's I was old enough to remember and too young for school and I played under the quilting frame while my grandmother quilted. I learned a lot during that time but I have only made one quilt and it was done on an overlooked and machine quilted. It was a larger baby quilt for a granddaughter who was expecting her first child.
I’ve watched this video 10+ times! I’m just starting EPP and yours are so beautiful! Completely inspiring 😍
I am hooked... I've been making masks and have lots of scrap, and am making good progress
I like your relaxed attitude and minimal rules! Those are some beautiful quilts.
I am mesmerized! By hand, unbelievable!
You are a pleasure to watch!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️
Thank you for sharing. You made it very clear and easy to do.
Hi Bonnie, how's your day going with you?
Wonderful tutorial! I prefer the glue method but this method works very well. Great that You brought up the ecological point as well!!
Both of you are just darling. thanks so much for sharing. Beautiful work
Thank you so much!
Hi Sharon, how's your day going with you?
Such great info for a beginner like me! And I love your accent too! Thanks again.
I was taught this way about 30 years ago in Patchwork class - I thought it was the only method. Nice to know it has a name.
Enjoyed your video very much thank you to both of you
Great video Nikki. Thanks for sharing it.
Thankyou nice to know there are people as mad as me on hexagons, I wish i had found you a long time ago, great instructions thank you x
Hi Ronni, how's your day going with you?
EPP fantastic work Nikki I love the colours you are so right use all your small pieces of fabric to create something just like you have. Waist nothing thsnk you for sharing stitch sisters 😊 😊 ❤ ❤
So thrilled to see how you do English paper piecing. I am going to give this a go. Thanks.
OMGOSH that was wonderful im new to epp. Thanks so much for sharing
You are so welcome!
Thank you ladies!!! Can’t wait to try! Just got a great idea for a gift for my brother who loves the settlers of catan game which is all hexagons!!!
Very nice explanation 🎉,I am about to get ready for EPP now!
Really helpful thank you. 👍
I like that you tied these quilts when finished instead of quilting them. Really great quilts and great explanation on how to EPP
Loved seein the order you sew them in! Great video. Thank you
Such beautiful workmanship! They are all gorgeous pieces of art! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much
Fantastic - thank you - it must be 40 years since I made a cushion cover and about to do another - lockdown here we come!

Hope you decide to give it a go Tammy x
This was an excellent tutorial. I think I will give this a try.

Kathryn Sweetzer aww thank you. Start out small Kathryn, just aim to make a cushion cover or a small table runner....after that you’ll be addicted !!

Maureen Cullen yes that’s a great idea. Maybe once I’m finished the one I’m working on I’ll do a tutorial on how to finish it.
Maureen just wanted to make sure you had seen our video on how to complete your epp quilt th-cam.com/video/JTi6XJTLSxE/w-d-xo.html

Hi Elly, how's your day going with you?
Those are beautiful!!! Love the idea, skill.....and patience needed to create those hexagons :)
You have just prompted me to get my hexi quilt back out that I started last year, I love how relaxing it is to Hand Sew them and the small Hexi’s are my fave too. I use freezer paper to do the paper piecing as it presses to temporarily fuse to the fabric and a role goes a very long way ☺️ great video thankyou 💖
thank you for this epp tutorial, beautiful work!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Wow I always was wondering how to make those, now I have to start attacking my pile of cotton scraps! You have magical fingers! Thank you so much for this vlog! I have a quilt in process but my hubby said it is to noisy in the living room LOL! Imagine a little featherweight too noisy! But now I can give this a go! Christine ;-)

Thank you so much 😊. If you like hand quilting I’m sure you would love EPP too
Loved this! Your quilts are absolutely stunning. Excellent tutorial, too. Think I might need to give this a try.
Loved this!
When do you take out the other papers, not just the middle one?
You can do it as you start to sew your flowers together. I usually sew a few together then take out all the papers at once. You should always leave the papers in the hexies around the edge.
@@StitchSisters thank you. A really interesting series of videos. Your enthusiasm for the work shines through.
Thank you so much for this video!!
I got into sewing a year or so ago and have quilted two tops by machine. I’m plucking up the courage to try FMQ on them.
I only tried dress making this year after finding Tilly and the buttons patterns in John Lewis.
Think I’ll give EPP a second go after watching your video as the basting stitch looks easier than I ever imagined
