    I appreciate your honesty about wanting to impress people with minimal effort. ME TOO and it is so freeing to say it out loud❣️ I also love using polka dots and stripes in quilts. I have been machine piecing together quilts for a long time but I need something portable and I think EPP is it. I know that I am late to the game but I can't wait to start. Thanks for these tutorials! Oh my goodness, you are such a breath of fresh air. I love your humor and rational for the 'hack method' of cutting your fabric.

    “Anybody that judges you by the back of your quilt and not your front isn’t your real friend.”- Tula Pink ... Words to live by. I'm in a FB EPP group, and there was mention from the leader that the back be "as beautiful as the front". Say what!? I'm thinking, now I have to think about the back too? Not just points matching, making sure they're actually pointy, stitching accuracy, fussy cutting, etc.!? Thank you Tula Pink! I'm halfway through my first EPP project, and I have learned so much of what I don't want to repeat in the next one.

  • @rosesulla2616
    @rosesulla2616 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you Tula. I don’t quilt, but my Grama in the hills of Kentucky did. When we visited down there on vacation, Ioved looking and sleeping with her quilts. They were made with feed sacks and old used clothing so it made a truly wonderful piece art, not fussy but very colorful and eye appealing. It was a treasure when she let Mama boy one (very frugal) to take back home in Detroit. My sister Patsy was the only girl in our family to go to “quilting” class and really make a quilt for my parents...it was a gift, so she did not charge! I have loved watching your videos and admiring your work. Very professional. But I truly love old Granny’s completely hand made quilt. Only scissors, paper cut-out, needle and thread. A real labor of love! Thanks.💕

    I am so "left brain" that I was impressed with your name Tula Pink before you even started. LOL. My middle name is Rose..maybe I have hope! I have a 2-year old quilting machine I am too afraid to quilt a project, but I've done alot of sewing on it. I am about 1/16th English descent, so again maybe there's hope for English Paper Piecing success. I just love fabric, love colors, love constructing things & tools are kind of cool too. I adore your work, your expertise, your humor, your design & mostly your imagination. Thanks & never give up sharing with the "left brainers" of the world. 👍💗👍

    Tula will probably never see this but I watched her series on EPP and fell in love. I immediately purchased the Tula Nova pattern and acrylic set. But when I got it and saw all those pieces I almost had a heart attack! But her instructions are so very helpful and easy to follow. I’m about half way through this pattern and do NOt want to finish it and not have a pattern to do. So I have purchased Tula Sunrise and blooms as well and can’t wait to dig into them! Thank you Tula I wish you were my neighbor! I would love to have you as a friend. I have really enjoyed watching you.
