Ruby Loves Red: Ladies, I do believe that I have finally finished my starter block! I'm so excited for you all to get your hands on it and add your own touches to the piece! I'm just writing out some bits and pieces in my little book that'll travel along with it for the
Ruby Loves Red: 2015 makes part 2 - even more #Epp and some work for @dashwoodstudio ,my first draughted mini quilt pattern, pattern testing for @owensolivia and some quilting bee work! A productive year 😊
Ruby Loves Red: Part one of my 2015 makes. It's been a good year, lots of swaps, lots of experimenting and lots of #epp
Ruby Loves Red: Two rows down and one to go! They are completely off so I'm unsure how well (or even if) I'm going to be able to join them together. I'm also having colour dilemmas, I have it narrowed down to about fifteen for the spaces between πŸ™ˆ #englishpap
Ruby Loves Red: A few more added on! Think I might need to use some thicker card to stop the crinkles, but can I be bothered to start again πŸ˜•?!?. #beeadventurous #epp #englishpaperpiecing #handsewing
Ruby Loves Red: A little experiment tonight in #epp curves. #beeadventurousquilts

Ruby Loves Red: And my printed fabric (too lazy to iron it for the photo!). A huge thanks to @karenlewistextiles and @mybearpaw for the class. Now - what to make from it?!? #screenprinting
Ruby Loves Red: My finished Bloom quilt arrived at @dashwoodstudio today in time for their open day at the weekend. Such a lovely fabric line! #bloomfabric #dashwoodstudio @rachelcavedesign #quilt #fmq

Ruby Loves Red: This months #beeeuropa block was a bit of an adventure for me - My very first attempt at foundation paper piecing eeek! So a few YouTube videos later I managed to figure it out, phew. I had to replace the green you sent me @espritpatch as I didn't cut it
Ruby Loves Red: I managed to finish the macaroon pouch I started at the #stitchgathering2015 on Sunday! Such a fun little pattern and class with @hikaru_ajackson - That top picture shows the scale of these tiny little pouches! Thanks again Hikaru πŸ’•

Ruby Loves Red: Started this but can't get over the lightest coloured triangles. They are too patterned and distracting for me next to the white areas I think! Although I don't think I've got the energy to unpick them either 😩 #epp #englishpaperpiecing #cottonandst
Ruby Loves Red: Still loving those blues! #epp #englishpaperpiecing #cottonandsteel #tvhhaul #hexies
