WIP: English Paper Piecing

I recently purchased my first set of English paper piecing templates. I was anxious to try them out (having only read about them online), so I pulled some fabric from my stash and started playing.

I recently snapped up two fat quarters of Shelburne Falls by Denyse Schmidt's, and paired with a couple of solids from my stash, I got to work.

I'm having an absolute blast and can't wait until all of these little pieces become something!

Work in progress: pinwheels

I'm working on a new project that will eventually be a gift for someone. I will be back to share photos of the finished product as soon as I've gifted it, but in the meantime here's a sneak peak:

As you can see, I used more of the Hobby Lobby fabric I have in my stash. The yellow isn't quite as "golden" as it looks in these photos, I promise!
