I have just started the Pie and Tarts quilt with the remaining Jo Morton and also cutting out 16mm hexagons. I find english piecing very relaxing.

I was going to do random but my sister is working on EPP also, so we decided to do the flower. hAve almost the size of a small wall hanging. Also was working on yo-yo's. Have put together the size of a double spread so far. Couldn't sew for awhile as we were building our log home, so I started hand work. Love it. Good luck.
