Old Saybrook Lighthouse
Saybrook Star
This block represents the nautical heritage of my town which is at the
mouth of the Connecticut River as it empties into Long Island Sound.
The light house is a rough copy of the one which stands on the breakwater
at the mouth of the river. It is an Overlaid block and I drew the pieced
part first and then drew the lighthouse and copied and pasted it on
to the overlaid block.

Follow The Leader with sashing
I drew this block 10 x 10 inches. I graded the colors from dark to white,
used the darkest in the smallest triangle, skipped a shade for each
larger triangle and the last square.

E Heart
D Heart
I enjoyed doing this challenge as I had planned to create this for my
best friend in Brantford, Ontario. I will be making it very soon. I
used country set so I could center the hearts. All the letter hearts
are my own design. I modified the applique cat and flower blocks taken
from the EQ library. I know I will enjoy the process because it is whimsical
layout & employs a variety of techniques.

I just started with a blank block and began drawing lines. The new symmetry tool in EQ5 is a quick way to see if your block has any potential.

Lady Bear
Baby Bear
I am making a quilt for my SIL, whose favorite animal is a bear. I wanted
this bear to have more than a "cookie cutter" shape, but not overly
complex features.
One of two bear blocks I drew for a quilt I am making for my SIL. This
bear has a simple shape, because she will be holding a card with a poem
on it.

Ultimate Churn Dash
Double Spinwheel
I wanted to keep the block simple, but make it look a little complicated. I like taking old favorites and expanding on them.
I like the movement of this block. I worked from the outside, in.

Circus Seal
Grass Frog
This is the first time I have traced a design in the Electric Quilt
program. I scanned one of the blocks I drew for the baby quilt I am
making for my grandson. I found the tracing process fairly easy to do
in EQ5. My original designs for the circus blocks in the baby quilt
were drawn on paper but I've wanted to use the tracing feature in EQ5
so decided this was the time to start and picked the seal block for
my great adventure.

This is a block that I had draw from one in BB2. I can't remember which on though. Boo Hoo! But for my first attempt it turned out ok.
This is a new block from the Lock and Chain block in BB2, #1792. I had deleted some lines and added others for the April 2003 Challenge.
