Club EQ Album: January 2004 Challenge: Two Blocker! Page 3

Two Blocker. Use two different blocks (from the EQ Block Library or ones you've drawn yourself and are willing to share), and create a quilt that shows how these two blocks blend into each other. Lines that appear to connect from one block to the next will be more apparent if you do not use sashing in the layout.

Bertha Hawley Skewed Ribbons I like to take traditional blocks and skew them. These are Star Variation and 9 Patch/Snails Trail blocks. I flipped, rotated, and recolored so the original blocks disappear.

Diana Maleckar The World's Crown I think the World's Fair and Crown of Thorns blocks make a good combination. I chose "Woodland Pines" Moda fabrics for a country flavor.This would make a great cabin quilt to snuggle up in by the fire.

Kathleen Potvin Lace in Space ClubEQ challenge for Jan 2004 Kathleen Potvin Ft Wayne, Indiana Same blocks, different pieced border. Makes a nice frame. I like designs that blend, making it difficult to find the blocks. Another project I may have to make. email	Kathleen Potvin Stars on Parade Club EQ Challenge for Jan 2004 Kathleen Potvin Ft. Wayne, Indiana I looked for blocks with matching grids. These are both 5-patch blocks. They are from Blockbase. I created a different illusion by coloring some patches the same as the background. This quilt appears set on point, only the border is on point. It email	Kathy C.

This is one of those quilts that looks much better with no outlines.	Linda Aguiar Light Games The light game is new for me.

ML Kaczka Two-Block Quilt EQ5 Jan '04 Challenge, version 1 To meet the challenge of creating a two block quilt, I used a 7x7 grid in Easy Draw and created the star block first. Then I drew a second block after converting the first block to guide lines, so I could make sure that things would line up to create a secondary pattern. The second block was meant to be a simpler block so that the star block could shine. I had to do some tweaking so that the star block can be paper pieced in 4 sections. The other block's 4 corners can be paper pieced and then sashed together to create the whole block. The first version is a 3x3 quilt so you can see the specific blocks. In the second version, a 7x7 quilt, you can see the secondary pattern more clearly. I drew these blocks from scratch, but I don't know if they are truly unique or not. I enjoyed making them and tweaking them for paper piecing. The fun part, and hard part, was narrowing down the different color variations to just two quilts. I called the one a star block but when combined with the other block, I think it looks more like a very fancy bow, hence the name Lucky Bow 7. email	ML Kaczka Two-Block Quilt ML Kaczka, Dover, DE, See notes from version 1 of the quilt email	Pat C.
