Five tools, chosen specifically for EPP.
English Paper Piecing has its own rhythm and its own requirements. The needle needs to be fine enough to pass cleanly through folded fabric edges without distorting them. The scissors need to be small and precise for trimming seam allowances and snipping threads flush. The thread needs conditioning to stop it knotting mid-session. And the clips need to be strong enough to hold basted pieces firmly without marking the fabric.
The SOHMO EPP Bundle was assembled with exactly that workflow in mind - five tools that belong in every EPP kit, each chosen for how it performs in this specific context.
What's inside:
Italian Thread Snips - spring-loaded, knife-edge blade, handmade in Italy. For trimming threads flush to the fabric without reaching for scissors. The tool most EPP sewists say they can't work without once they've tried it.
Easy Thread Needles, made in Japan (pack of 20) - self-threading needles with a slotted eye that loads in one press. For EPP sessions where you're regularly rethreading, these remove one of the more fiddly interruptions from the process.
Sharps Needles, made in Japan (pack of 20) - fine, sharp, and smooth through folded cotton. The standard needle for EPP hand stitching, in a Japanese-made version that glides rather than drags.
Australian Beeswax - pure, unbleached, naturally scented. Run your thread across it before stitching to reduce tangling, prevent fraying, and help thread pass smoothly through multiple fabric layers. An EPP essential.
Mini Clips (pack of 50) - stainless steel clips for holding basted EPP pieces together, securing paper templates, or keeping sections organised. Strong, reusable, and sized for fine work.
Individual RRP: $141.79. Bundle price: $119.00. Saving: $22.79.
