I've been bitten by the English Paper Piecing craze after seeing Joy's blocks for 'It Takes Two' quilt.
Today in-between customers, I prepared the 384 petals for the circles and the 228 pieces for the pieced borders. Instead of a light cream I have decided to go for a lovely blush background...coordinates beautifully with my collection of Antique Rose fabrics.
I don't expect to get my quilt finished any time soon but it will be a nice change from stitcheries while relaxing in front of the telly.
Pssssst! Don't tell the boss but I really should have been quilting my 'Garden Twist' Quilt instead of playing with papers.

lol,well done Tess
Busy girl Tess and yes get your garden twist quilted cause its gorgeous!
Just remember, it's addictive. "Insanity" will be next. The best thing is that you're in good company. Looking forward to seeing your quilt coming together. Love the garden trellis. It's on my to do list - as long as it is. Just found out I have a "gift" of 4 days to spend sewing! Yeh! May even get time for a visit to Homespun and Beautiful.
Your new project looks fun and perfect to work on while watching the ol' tv.
Love the Garden Twist quilt you are working on - so beautiful!
Good for you and I won't tell ! Love the fabrics you've chosen .
Love the fabric you have pick out for your hexie quilt. Your twist quilt is gorgeous..
Where can I find the pattern to make the sewing basket you posted a pic of back on Sept. 2010? I appreciate your help with this. Thank you. Melissa
I am very interested to get a copy of the pattern for the lovely garden twist/lattice quilt you have made - can you help me out with where I can obtain it, please?
