Tula is a quilting comedian, she just makes me smile because she never gives away the fact that she is not serious with her facial expressions. Love you.
I love how you teach EPP with such common sense and a touch of humor!💕
This is the first time I've had the pleasure of watching Tula. I instantly fell in love with your methods. Can't wait to watch you in action again!
Just discovering EPP and this is like a Ted Talk for quilting. Absolutely amazing. I’m so glad these videos are saved forever.
Thank you! You are a great teacher. You could instruct a professor, professional all the way to a young child
Appreciate your time ❤
Tula makes me laugh. Her teaching style is refreshing, effective, engaging, and thorough. Thanks Tula!
I am 53 and I just found the quilting world! And boy am I glad I found You Tula! Thank you for being so you!
Me too, 53 and a newbie quilter!
Me too 54!
This is my first video watching Tula and I love everything about her! This is amazing!11
I appreciate your honesty about wanting to impress people with minimal effort. ME TOO and it is so freeing to say it out loud❣️ I also love using polka dots and stripes in quilts. I have been machine piecing together quilts for a long time but I need something portable and I think EPP is it. I know that I am late to the game but I can't wait to start. Thanks for these tutorials! Oh my goodness, you are such a breath of fresh air. I love your humor and rational for the 'hack method' of cutting your fabric.
Tula, I absolutely Love your process!!!!!
Tulas fabrics are so unique. You really have to unleash and be creative with these beautiful fabrics
i’ve just had about a billion lightbulb moments. This is hands down the most brilliant and easy to digest tutorial ever.
Such a brilliant tutorial Tula can you buy this pack for paper piecing? I am in Scotland.
Hello Lynn! The pack is available here: www.fatquartershop.com/tula-nova-quilt-pattern-and-complete-piece-pack
It is what I call “rich” tutorial. It’s worth way more than the time it takes to watch it. You should consider taking notes, too.

@@Happybidr I've watched it a few times and gotten more out of it each time. It's brilliant.
Thank you so much for your comprehensive, informative, brilliant tutorial.
You are AWESOME in teaching EPP. Thank You so much for making it easy for me to understand.
Tula Pink is a legitimate quilting goddess. She is an overflowing fountain of knowledge and humor and I love her so much!!
This is the third time I have watched the video, and I learn something each time! After trying EPP for myself a little bit, I come back to get questions answered. Tula just gets better and better ❤
Omg, I just about feel out of my chair when you said, “I want to make a lot of quilts before I die.” I’ve been thinking that same thing but at the rate I’m going, I’ll be lucky to get 10 m0re done.
OMG my quilting eyes have been opened!! 😍 Thank you for an amazing video. I'm off to scour the UA-cams for more Tula Pink wisdom!
UNBELIEVABLE!! Holy moly!! You are a SUPERSTAR for sure!! WOW!
This is the absolute best instruction on paper piecing the I have ever seen. Tula is an amazing teacher, she knows how to speak to people that are just learning. She is a natural teacher.
Thank you so much. This was just what I needed. Thank you. Down to earth and real ❤
OH my goodness! i need you in my life!! Such a real and lovely human!!
Best teacher ever!!,
At 74 my world has been rocked by the amazing Tula Pink and this tutorial. Wonderful !!!
This woman is phenomenal in everyway. Can’t stop watching.
Tula is the quilter I never knew I needed in my life! She is hilarious and so talented!
Same!
"anyone that judges your quilt from the back....isn't a real friend" LOVE THIS! I am enjoying watching this video! Thank you for posting :)
Great teacher!
My favorite, "If I see you tracing each piece, I am going to send you out to the hallway to think about what you've done!" ROFLOL!! Awesome tips and video! Thank you. I love your methods!
Yes! I laughed so hard I startled my kid when she said that 😂😂
If you ever retired from designing fabric (as if) you would be an extremely talented stand up comic. You make me smile. You make me laugh, but most importantly, you make total sense!! 😘
Absolutely the best instruction on English Paper Piecing.
There best 40 minutes I've spent since being quarantined 👸🏻🦝🧵✂️
I have been watching soooo many of her videos!!! I just ordered the Tula nova pattern and templates...now to figure out what fabric to use!!!
Love how Tula balances level of effort with ROI. My girl!
Thank you FQS for having teachers like Tula for us newbies, us rebels, she is the 💣❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
'I've got a lot of quilts to make before I die!' I don't know how many times I've said this, laughed out loud. Brilliant tutorial, thanks Tula for an easy to follow method to EPP , common sense approach to not wasting time and the great sense of humor.
This is not relevant to anything, but I love how clearly you enunciate all of your hard consonants. It is so satisfying to hear you say things like "paper piecing" or "take your time."
Tula...again...you taught us all SO much...thank you !
Thank you Tula. I don’t quilt, but my Grama in the hills of Kentucky did. When we visited down there on vacation, Ioved looking and sleeping with her quilts. They were made with feed sacks and old used clothing so it made a truly wonderful piece art, not fussy but very colorful and eye appealing. It was a treasure when she let Mama boy one (very frugal) to take back home in Detroit. My sister Patsy was the only girl in our family to go to “quilting” class and really make a quilt for my parents...it was a gift, so she did not charge! I have loved watching your videos and admiring your work. Very professional. But I truly love old Granny’s completely hand made quilt. Only scissors, paper cut-out, needle and thread. A real labor of love! Thanks.💕
Love your sense of humor !
Vraiment extraordinaire !!! WHY? simplicity of techniques, time matters so that creativity is NOT extinguished! Merci beaucoup !
You are as phenomenal a teacher as you are a quilter! Thank you!!!!
Love you and Angela Walters so much!!!!!!
Thank you for the sunrise
Tula is the Goddess of quilting. Her attention to detail Is masterly and her techniques and explanation thereof, are perfectly understandable to any level of quilter. I love her sense of humour.
omg -- I don't even paper piece (YET!) but I feel like I actually know something about it now. What an absolute joy to watch and I learned so much that I'm not quite as intimidated to try it.
Hooray! We believe you can do it too, Kathy!
Tula does fantastic English paper piecing tutorials!
This has to be the best, most thorough, easy to understand paper piecing and design tutorial I seen. Tula Pink videos are a real joy to watch
Eye-balling, shortcuts, sweet stripe tricks, hacks - OH MY!!! Best justification for working smarter not harder that I've heard this week! Going hard on soft textiles - I love it! Now, if I could only tame my obsession with those darn tricky diamonds, my life would be better - I complicate my self most of the time. Thanks for the ears jingle...
You are funny and I love your attitude towards quilts and quilting!
Girl, you work your fanny off! People today want maximum return but are NEVER willing to do the work. Be proud! Your work is incredible
Tula, Thank You for "BeingYou "....... you are so inspiring !! I WILL try English paper piecing after all .
Tula is a hoot!! Love her sense of humor & not to mention her amazing talent !
wooow tula you are an extra creative woman happy to watch you from kuwait , with love ♥️
OMG - Your sense of humor needs a studio audience! And the EPP tutorial is the best. I love when instructors give you every reason why you can learn a new skill - Thanks Tula 😁
I learned more from your program than I have in a long time. Thank you so much. You are so enjoyable and funny to watch.
“Anybody that judges you by the back of your quilt and not your front isn’t your real friend.”- Tula Pink ... Words to live by. I'm in a FB EPP group, and there was mention from the leader that the back be "as beautiful as the front". Say what!? I'm thinking, now I have to think about the back too? Not just points matching, making sure they're actually pointy, stitching accuracy, fussy cutting, etc.!? Thank you Tula Pink! I'm halfway through my first EPP project, and I have learned so much of what I don't want to repeat in the next one.
I love this lady !! thank you Tula for your tips and teachings
Tula’s explanations are so clear, if you do not understand them, you need to find another hobby because she makes it so understandable. As a beginning quilter I have wondered “what in the WORLD is EPP and why on earth did anyone ever think this was a good idea? Who puts paper in a quilt?” It so happens the quilters I knew left them in. This is not Tula’s ways which makes sense to me now. What a wonderful way to achieve consistent accuracy. So beginning quilters, watch Tula! Thank you Tula! Jessica from North Carolina
I love your sense of humor! Who knew quilting instruction could be so entertaining while also incredibly clear and informative. Thank you!
Thank you so much for these EPP videos. Your videos got me into EPP and now I'm hooked.
So cool to watch Tula Pink share her magic 🥰
YOU ARE AMAZING,! Your teaching is understandable, appreciate saving seconds, cuz I’m old! I would never have approached this project, except now that I know I choose fabrics as I go, this is doable
Tula you could never be described as a lazy quilter. Like Edtya Sitar, You are prolific! Such a beautiful quilt.
You are such a great teacher. I have done a little paper piecing but I have been searching UA-cam to see if anyone had more tips for me. I learned more from you than from Sue Daley.
I have no desire to English Paper Piece a quilt ever but I love this video and I love Tula's attitude!!
Love your sense of humor! Who thought quilting videos could be so entertaining, while also incredibly clear and informative. Thank you!
Wonderful teacher, love the "minimum effort maximum impact" approach.
You are absolutely delightful to watch 💕I love your humor and how you use it to teach!
All this time I never thought I would do an EPP project because it was just too hard! After watching this video I'm so ready to start. Tula is a goddess. I'm can tell EPP is my next obsession!
This is an awesome video! I think I just fell in love with Tula Pink!
"I don't really want to earn it. I just want to have it." OMG! LOL~ that is so me, I can't believe someone else said it out loud! I am working on Tula Nova right now, and this tutorial was awesome! Thanks, Tula!
LTD Quilting LTD Q. Where did you get the pattern for Tula Nova?
You are hilarious! Love your tips and tricks and attitude. Go Tula Pink. Just found you and I’m glad. Thank you.
Tula, you are a visionary. I could listen to you speak all day! Your way of explaining techniques is unparalleled. Honestly, EPP has never appealed to me in the past, but after watching this, I'm going to try it!
I'm thoroughly impressed. I never thought I'd be interested in trying English paper piercing. You have changed my mind. Thank you.
I never attempted English paper piecing but after watching Tula demystify it I’ll try it. Thank you
Well, this was confronting, shocking and sometimes just down right startling but I enjoyed every minute of it!!!! There was a wealth of information in this video that inspired me and enthused me to get that English Paper Piecing back out and do it this way. Glue, I love you. Thanks so much for this video Tula. An oldie but a goodie.
Love love love your advice. Thank you
Completely not surprised that Angela Walters quilts Tula’s quilts! Both make me want to use so much more colour and be brave with my quilting choices. Thanks FQS and Tula for these awesome videos. x
You are a gifted woman. You are quirky n clever. LOVE YOU N YOUR WORK...🎆🎆♥️♥️♥️♥️
THE BEST youtube video ever, love all your suggestions, explanations, ideas, the most helpful video I've every watched. Thank you!
I wish I could "like" this video a hundred times. Tule is the best. ❤️❤️❤️
As introductions go, this video was my introduction to Tula Pink. I now understand the gushing I hear from her fans, either on line or at a fabric store. She takes they mystery out of EPP, shows you how to do it and thereby insure your quilt is sufficiently impressive to be worth the effort it takes! I am a new fan!
I’m an art teacher and this is sooooo magical! No idea what the fall will look like, but I’m taking some of you into my classroom.
*bows to Tula and swears loyalty*
How old was I when I learned to cut hexagons out of fabric with out cutting one at a stinkin’ time?? Today years old!!!!! I was the girl that you would have told to go sit outside and think about what you are doing.😂😂
I cut tons today and you set me freeeeee!!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽 My first EPP started today!
You are such an awesome teacher! If we can ever sit in a classroom with a group of people again, I am making a huge effort to sit in a class of yours! I always walk away from your tutorials with so many precious nuggets of information!
loved your new line I just got to know and happy I did you are so cute and talented I am an 80 yr old quilter so hi glad to meet you on line
Love you Tula. Love you fabric lines so much. Thanks for the lesson !
Tula, you are right about the 3/8 and I do that for many quilts. My first quilt made in 1973 was Flower Garden and did it completely by hand. Yeah you gotta have a rotating cutting area. Tula, this is the best tutorial I haver ever watched! (and I am very old)
"Anyone who judges your quilts based on what the backs look like is not a real friend"
That's so good though
I really like watching Tula Pink's videos. She is very precise and tells you why you need to do something a certain way
This is the perfect and most thorough tutorial in paper piecing by the queen of quilting. You will be making many more quilts in your lifetime. Mine will be a shorter span
I am blown away at how easy piecing is, I never thought I could ever attempt it! Now, thanks Tula Pink I can do it! 😊
Hello Tula. I'm a new quilter and Epp. For Epp I glue the center rather than edge. I find it easier and comes out easily. Thank you for all the products you explain which makes sense now. Love all your designs. Gisele V.
I hate (as in loathe and detest) EPP, but I think your tutorial may just have changed my mind.
Thoroughly enjoyed the session and your beautiful fabrics.
Looking forward to Part 2 now...Thank you.
OMG... YOUR A REAL PERSON??? I just thought it was great material with a cool ass name. I feel so dumb now. EPP is becoming my new obsession. YOU r now my new favorite person ever... I'm gonna be up all night now feeding my head with Tula Pink....lol.
Tula Pink has THE most beautiful & colorful fabrics, period.
Love your sense of humor too 😂
Tula will probably never see this but I watched her series on EPP and fell in love. I immediately purchased the Tula Nova pattern and acrylic set. But when I got it and saw all those pieces I almost had a heart attack! But her instructions are so very helpful and easy to follow. I’m about half way through this pattern and do NOt want to finish it and not have a pattern to do. So I have purchased Tula Sunrise and blooms as well and can’t wait to dig into them! Thank you Tula I wish you were my neighbor! I would love to have you as a friend. I have really enjoyed watching you.
Thank you so so much ! Tula, you probably know this by now (but it’s always nice to hear), YOU are the best. I love your personality and how you own your knowledge.
In the middle of makimg a la passacaglia quilt& this video has helped soooooo much. Thanks Tula you are a inspiration. Just got paper pieces and templates for tula nova and have been collecting your fabrics forever cant wait to get started xx
Thank you for this tutorial!! I picked up a paper piecing pattern that I did not realize what I was getting into! After watching your tutorial I think I am going to now tackle the challenge 🧵✂️
