Quilt Prepping, Wave Pattern Testing & Festival of Quilts Inspiration! 🧵🪡
Hello everyone! Pop in for a cozy catch-up with me today while I get my hands busy in the sewing room. Today, I've worked through my latest project plans, prepped my English Paper Piecing (EPP), and have been reflecting on all the incredible inspiration I've found on YouTube from this year’s Festival of Quilts.
If you enjoy casual sewing chats, pattern testing, and discovering new creators, grab a cuppa and join me!
