More EPP....

So this EPP is quite distracting.  I'll be going on vacation for a week and I'm not taking my Juki--just my EPP.  I bought the new book Quilting on the Go and I love it!  Apparently there is a blog tour about it....the author's blog is called Life Under Quilts.  Check it out if you have a moment...

My plan is to make a big star quilt out of my coveted Kaffe fabrics.  Of course I didn't have enough, so I bought 25 half yard cuts from Hancock's of Paducah to round out my stash.  They haven't arrived yet, but soon....I decided that I had to make some sort of tessellating unit and this is what I came up with ....One star unit with three background diamonds.  This unit will fit together with the other units nicely.  I need to make 100 of these units!


 See how they will fit together?  If anyone has a better plan, please let me know.  I'm just winging it....



I'm working on making the 100 star units before assembling them.  I'll show you a pic of my plan later this week....awesome!


Anyhow, I need to go pack and get ready for vacation.  Happy quilting!

  3. love your fabric choices! I, too, am doing a hexie quilt. I am doing lots of long car rides across the country so I needed something portable. I'll have to check out that book.
