  1. I think there are as many ways to do EPP hexies as there are to do paper piecing! I always attach the ‘petals’ to the flower centre first, and then stitch between them, rather than adding the centre last, and assemble the hexie flowers in square blocks rather than long lines, as I find it easier to work with. Good to see a tutorial for EPP, one of my favourite kinds of hand work 🙂
