I am going to start finishing off my Mrs. Holder's

My finished quilt will be about 22" x 26"

Add green and brown hexagons to the top and bottom only.

If you would like yours to be larger continue to go all

the way around until you have reached the desired size.

Mrs. Holder looks wonderful with a pop of red. 

Add a round of scrappy reds and one light.

I want to take a minute to answer a few frequently asked questions.

1. How big will this quilt be?

I am not totally sure but probably about 22" x 26" of course

you can always keep going and make your as large as you like.

2. Do you still have kits available?

So sorry but we no longer have kits available. We do still have

the hexagon papers and template available on our website.

If you would like to order some you can find them here.

3. What English Paper Piecing technique is your favorite?

I like to glue baste, you can see a simple tutorial here.

4. How do you keep everything organized for this project?

I love vintage metal tool boxes and I happen to know a guy

that makes me custom ruler boxes. This is my favorite 

sewing tote at the moment. You can see another favorite here.

5. Do I have another English Paper Piecing

 project planned when Mrs Holder is finished?

Of course and I can't wait to show it to you! Here is a hint?
