QUEEN OF DIAMONDS Month 1

After signing up last spring... 

the deliveries finally started shipping- 

and it was time to begin the 

QUEEN OF DIAMONDS

group EPP sew along 

created by Pink Door Fabrics 

with monthly classes 

shared on line by Tula Pink!!!The on-line chatter in the FB group

 and enthusiastic buildup 

has been quite powerful.

I even "bedazzled" my templates with tape along the edges to help avoid slipping about during rotary cutting the pieces.

I also made "cards" to keep track of my fabrics

And then I stitched...

I Looooove EPP, 

I find it very satisfying watching 

the puzzle pieces and eventual shapes evolve

Month 1A

Month 1B

Next up, I decided to follow TP's lead and add the first border so I could remove the paper pieces. These strips are machine sewn in place...

Woohooo!

And Month 1 is complete!!!
