Interesting box. I have never Epps, but think I will try. The needles look like they are well made and would work for a lot of different projects. The fabric is pretty. It is a hard choice to either make the quilt or the table runner. Thanks for sharing and happy quilting
This is a fantastic box and can't wait to get mine. I've been a subscriber since the very beginning, and this is the first time seeing an EPP project included, which is great as I have never tried it before and looking forward to doing so. I love how they are putting a variety of projects in their boxes. This means they are listening to suggestions people have put forth to include in future boxes. I have suggested including small projects like pouches or totes and they have included them. I love all the items included. The fabric is beautiful, and I believe this is the 2nd time receiving 3 charm packs. You can never have enough thread and needles so I'm glad to see those included. Great video and thanks for sharing. Looking forward to the Cupid Box reveal.
I discontinued my box this month- I was worried I would miss something great but there is nothing here I’m interested in. Now to sweat it out for February lol
Thank you for the video- I subscribed. So I cancelled my box in November and the unboxings are really helping my FOMO! Bummed because Basic Grey is my favorite designer, but at the same time, I have a ton of hand projects right now so this would never have gotten done. I’m trying to go back and finish up some past boxes I loved. I await your Cupid Box unboxing- if it’s a good one, I’ll order it. It looked cute when Kimberly pulled it out of the box as a tease- did you see that. Thanks again.
I use milliners needles for making French knots when I do embroidery. The eye is the same thickness as the shaft of the needle, so it is easier to pull through the center of the French knit than a regular embroidery needle is. The trick is to get the right size needle so that your embroidery floss strands fit through the eye.
I did not get it yet. FQS had sent out a duplicate shipping notification after I received my Sew Sampler. I thought it was the Cupid box. I did the unboxing on the 28th last year so I’d assume it’ll be here very soon!
I’ve considered too. I felt like I have everything I could possibly need an more. This box is so different from the last 6 years, it makes me wonder if they’re going in a new direction.
@@coffeecakequiltcompany100% , I love to sew other things than just quilts , and if there are going to offer different things to try like epp , I may sign up again . Looking forward for Cupid box.
I’m not getting my box until 1/28 it says so thank you for the boxing. Not overly crazy for this months box but might give EPP a try. I haven’t even been billed for the Cupid box yet but look forward to watching your unboxing! Thank you! 🦋💜
Thanks for showing the actual fabrics, I love that!
Aww! You’re welcome! ☺️
Love this box…great savings too
Yes! One of the best for savings I believe!
Great box, can't wait to get mine.

Love John James needles , great for hand quilting , epp , appliqué , hand work
That’s great to know! I’m excited to try them out. ☺️

I agree! I like the table runner more but I really do think that quilt is cute for a picnic. I’ll probably make it with scraps. 🩷
Yay! Thank you. Can’t wait to receive mine. Looking forward to seeing the Cupid box tomorrow as well. I appreciate your content.
I'm so excited for you! 💖 That was a good one!

Thanks so much! I agree, this feels like a new direction for sew sampler including more variety. I’m excited to see what else they have planned!
Worthi it for the charm packs alone!!!❤ can't wait for mine to arrive!😊
☺️
A milliner is a hat maker. A smooth needle is needed to glide through the layers.
Very cool, thank you!
Can’t wait to get my box. Charms are beautiful. Thanks for sharing
You’re so welcome! ☺️
Can’t wait to get my box, Lauren I was visiting my uncle Saturday he is very close to you.❤ love the charm packs. Also ordered the Cupid box.
Small world! I hope you had a good visit. 💕
Love everything in the box, especially the fabric!
I’m so glad you like it!
Im still waiting for my box & I will watch your Cupid box unboxing before I decide on that one
Sounds good! I’m hoping it arrives early next week!
Wow! Can't wait to get my box! I ordered the Cupid box too!
Yes! So exciting! 💘
Millner needles are for EPP, like hexi's etc.
Thank you!
I cannot wait to get mine. I to have never tried paper piecing, should be interesting
Let me know how it goes! 😊
Yes, great for sewing EPP together. Very thin and long.
That’s great to know! I’m excited to try them out. 😊
Charm square fabrics are pretty!

lol!
Great box! Loved the charm packs. I wish they would do a more modern block of the month, but it is my favorite box anyway. ❤
I’m crossing my fingers this next BOM is it!
Im excited to try the EPP, I have also seen people that sew it in the machine with a zigzag
Yes! I love that look!

That’s a great idea! You can always resubscribe when you work through your WIP. ☺️
This is the first EPP I remember getting and I’ve been getting the boxes for years
I thought so! It’s fun to try something new. ☺️
love EPP! It is SO fun. I am totally over the baskets- just not my thing
Yay! This box is definitely for you! 😁

Interesting! I had no idea the eye was the same thickness. Thanks for that info!
John James needles are amazing. I use them for cross stitching. U can uses them for epp
That’s great to know! I’m excited to try them out.
The milliners needl are great for appliqué.
Good to know!
Love to paper piece! Im just 20 minutes from you. My basement temp today is only 55!
Looking forward to warmer weather! 🥶
You said in this video that you would be getting the cupid box the next day and would do an unboxing. Did you not get it?
I did not get it yet. FQS had sent out a duplicate shipping notification after I received my Sew Sampler. I thought it was the Cupid box. I did the unboxing on the 28th last year so I’d assume it’ll be here very soon!
@@coffeecakequiltcompany Thanks!
The fabric is cute. Not sure about the English paper piecing. I’ll have to try it
Let me know how it goes!
EPP is probably the “new possibility” to embrace!!
You are probably right! 😁
Thanks for the review! Fabric is pretty, except wayyy too much blue for me! I'll need to do some substituting!
You're welcome! 😊
I like the prints, not something I would buy
Same!
Never have gotten epp. I am already disappointed. I have osteoarthritis and can do a lot of handwork.
Oh no! I didn’t think about that. Completely useless to some people. I’m sorry! 😞
I just cancel my fat quarter . That box is great , I am addictive to epp.
I’ve considered too. I felt like I have everything I could possibly need an more. This box is so different from the last 6 years, it makes me wonder if they’re going in a new direction.

What is it about EPP that you like so much?
Can't wait to get my box. Will watch to see your Cupids box tomorrow. Thanks for video.
I'm so excited for you! 💖
