Try the gorgeous Waterwheel Quilt pattern from Tales of Cloth – it’s a stunning free EPP (English Paper Piecing) project that’s perfect for beginners and seasoned quilters alike! Inspired by Islamic design, this quilt blends colored hexagons with crisp white shapes to create a sparkly, star-like effect and the feel of spinning cogs. It’s made using just two EPP templates: a 1.5″ kite and a 3″ equilateral triangle. It’s super doable even if you’re new to EPP! The layout alternates between two column styles to add movement and interest. The finished size is 37 x 43 inches. Just right for a crib quilt or a lap-sized piece to show off your handwork!
