An Even Dozen

Made for clubEQ challenge for October, 2004: An unusual sampler setting.

A setting for a variety of 12" blocks. Black seemed to be a great background to tie together the multi-colored blocks.

Christmas on the Log

Basic applique and pieced blocks laid out in a log cabin style. These blocks all came from the library. I just wanted a different way to use some of the appliques there.

Friendship Sampler

All the blocks were taken from the EQ5 block libraries for this challenge and recolored. I had alot of fun picking which blocks to use and how to recolor them. I'm still thinking of ideas on how to reset the blocks, but stopped at this one setting for the challenge. I hope you like it.

Third Battalion

Different sized blocks in an on-point row quilt have a slightly regimented look that is not unpleasant. The 'empty' spaces between blocks would be a good background to set off complex quilting motifs.

The first quilt I made (in 1992) was a sampler quilt. It's a very good way to start and builds confidence. Thanks, Eleanor Burns!

Puzzled Schoolgirl's Crown of White Clover

Blocks used: ' School Girl's Puzzle', 'Crown of Thorns', 'Lucky Clover', 'White Cross' ... Some quilts name themselves; some end up with names pasted together from parts of the block names. 'Nough said.

Paper-pieced sashing in three colorways shape the block settings. I actually made a similar-looking quilt a few years ago but I used templates to make the sashings. We all get older and wiser ... if we're blessed ...

This is my second 'real' project design since I got EQ a few weeks ago.
I have most of these blocks made... and some of them have been hanging around for as long as *gulp* ten years. It's about time that I put them all together! There's more variation in the fabric than I show here, but green and brown and cream predominate.
Thanks to EQ for helping me come up with a layout that I like!

Sunbonnet Collection

I had a large collection of embroidiered sunbonnet sue blocks which I wanted to put into a quilt, the problem was the blocks were in 3 different sizes. This is the setting that I came up with to utilize all three sizes. For this version I used appliqued sunbonnets to represent the embroidery. This is a quilt that I have acutally made and even though it looks complicated it was very simple to assemble and showed off the embroidered blocks very effectively. I sent a picture of the completed quilt to the embroidery designer and a picture of this quilt is displayed on her web site.

My sampler quilt

I loved making this piece and one of these
days I am going to make it.
I love to use EQ to design and I have a lot of things that I have actually made from these designes, and I have also used it to design for quilts for others and they have been very happy with them.

I have these 1.5" blocks from a swap and have been wondering how to set them in an interesting way. This might be one possibility, although I wonder if I'm up to swing 3/4" sashing blocks! Star buttons would probably be a better option instead of applique.

I have these 1.5" blocks from a swap and have been wondering how to set them in an interesting way. This is a second possibility, and I think I'll go with this one. The .5" blocks are set inside a Variable Star block. I drew the sashing blocks so that I could paper-piece them, but they're still pretty small, at 1" wide.
