You’ve seen English Paper Piecing projects and...

You’ve thought about how to get started.

 

Maybe you've even started with hexagons and made a stockpile of them. (you're not alone!)

Now you want to move on to a different shape. 

You’ve thought about what materials you need.

 

What kind of templates do you need? Which needles are the best? What about thread?

There are so many options out there. 

You’ve thought about what shape to start with.

 

Sure, there are hexagons but what size should you start with?

What about all those other amazing shapes and patterns?

What if you could stop googling for information all over the internet — and have it all in one spot instead?

Hi, I'm Elise!

When I first happened upon the quilting world, little did I know that EPP would steal my heart!

I am a first generation quilter and with nobody else in my close circle of friends and family being into quilting, it was all a guessing game at first. 

I had to teach myself and as you can guess, spent endless hours googling and searching the internet for tips and tricks. The one advantage I had though was that I knew how to sew, coming from a fashion design background. 

Learning EPP, experimenting and learning Adobe Illustrator got me started with writing and designing my own patterns and templates. That led to a book (Patchwork Gifts) and later, the release of my course on quilt pattern design. 

Now, learning EPP took me waaaaaaaay longer than it would have, if I'd had access to a course like this, the English Paper Piecing Academy. 

Let me save you the time and headache of searching the internet, not having anybody to ask questions and getting frustrated, and *gasp* give up on EPP! 

I can't wait to share all that I've learned with you so that you can get started on your EPP journey! 

When you walk away from English Paper Piecing Academy, you'll know exactly how to…

1.

Work with different tools and materials

2.

Work with all different kinds of shapes

3.

Select fabrics and colors 

4.

Choose the technique best suited for your project

5.

Fussy cut using different types of templates

Finish EPP projects from start to finish with confidence
