3/4" Grandmother's Flower Garden Tablerunner

The hexie flowers I pieced during the winter are sewn together. Now I need to fill those gaps on the sides with partial flowers.

I'm hoping EPP'ing the partial flowers works with sitting on the porch, otherwise I don't know when they'll be completed!

In the summer I often share pictures of Wakarusa's Quilt Garden. I was in Waky last week, here is what the garden looked like.

I'm sure flowers have been planted since then. We've had plenty of sunshine and light rain, perfect for planting flowerbeds. I'll update you on progress in June.

  1. Oh, I can see many hours with you sitting on the porch EPP-ing some more hexies. What a wonderful way to spend time. Your Grandmother's Flower Garden Tablerunner is beautiful.

  2. Ah yes! Who doesn’t want to spend time outside now that Spring is here? Slow stitching in my gazebo is a favourite activity in the summer. Your hexie runner is gorgeous! Gail at the Cozy Quilter

  4. That's a beauty. I have an EPP project I started a couple years ago but haven't finished. I really should go dig it out and work on it.

  13. I hope you get lots of porch sitting in the coming month. And I hop it includes EPPing. Look at akk that black dirt ready for color! Even that’s gorgeous ( to me anyway)! LOL

  14. Your runner is beautiful, Gretchen! I love your deep, rich color palette. Not what I usually associate with Grandmother's Flower Garden (usually I would think '30s prints, that apple green, yellow and pink). Did you say your hexies finish at just 3/4"?! Gorgeous!

  19. I love how your table runner is coming along. EPP is so portable you can do it anywhere, that's part of the beauty of it, right?
    I'm looking forward to seeing the flower bed later in the year :-)
