The honey comb shape is used for the Lucy Boston pattern using english paper piecing (EPP):

1" honey comb and 1" squares for english paper piecing, along with the 1" honey comb cutting template for fussy cutting.

1 1/2" honey comb and 1 1/2" squares for english paper piecing, along with the 1 1/2" honey comb cutting template for fussy cutting.

Slow Sunday Stitching #38 - English Paper Piecing

I've finally finished piecing the 4th block of month 1 of the Round We Go:

And I have started on the month 2 pattern:

I've gotten the center pieced, and some of the rest of the pieces basted for my first block, and I have pieces basted for the additional 3 blocks for October.


Meanwhile, I continue to sew my stash of basted hexagons into hexi flowers. I'm finding I need to fussy cut fabric for the centers, to give contrast and interest to the flowers.

Here are a set of 3 hexi flowers: 1 1/4", 1 1/8", and 1" hexagons.  While a 1/4" doesn't seem like much, when added across the 7 hexagons, it makes a much bigger difference in the size of the finished hexi flower.

Here is my third block from Sue Daley's Round We Go block of the month for month #1 from WebFabrics.  All English Paper Piecing. I'm new to the round outside curve pieces, a bit more difficult than the hexagons I have been basting these past couple of years.

Here are some 1 1/8" English Paper Pieced Hexagon flowers.
