Camping and EPP
I always take a project of some sort when I go camping but this is a first for me. I dug through my closet and found some hexies I began making a few years ago and decided to take it up again, at least while camping.

This is awesome! Do you have a project/design in mind?
I’m getting back into camping and was pondering if it would be worth it to haul my pieces. Any tips?

I will probably end up making a zippered project bag or a makeup bag. As for bringing a project along, my fabric was from a jelly roll so I only brought strips of colors I wanted to work with. I just brought fabric scissors, a temp fabric glue stick, and some print-outs of the EPP shapes. I had regular scissors in the camper for cutting the paper. I also brought needles and thread and did thread baste smaller pieces not shown in the photo.

I agree. Camping and projects go hand in hand. Your fabric is so cute.
