Club EQ Album: March/April 2005 Challenge: Hide the Block! Page 7 Take a block, color
it, and set it into a horizontal set quilt with a 3x3 or 4x4 layout. (This
is the "before.") Then create a second quilt with the same block,
same layout, and change the color in such a way that you lose track of
the original block. (This is the "after.") This is a great exercise
in coloring secondary designs, creating transparencies, or using traditional
blocks with non traditional color combinations. This challenge was suggested
by Jane Jacobson (aka ForestJane), and it is a fun one to create! -Barb Vlack |

Celia Norman I have the hardest time thinking of names for my quilts. This one is just named for the block that I used but it links nicely in to the name of the "after" quilt. Canmore, Alberta |
Celia Norman I now have five different colourings of this quilt. It is interesting to see the progression from "before" to "after." I liked this final version so much that I re-coloured the "before" version with the same palette. I would never have the patience to do this sort of thing with coloured pencils on graph paper. I'm so glad to have EQ5! Canmore, Alberta |

| Audrey Smith A straight forward colouring of a 4x4 setting of the Clay's Choice block from the EQ Library which I adjusted so I could use the second colouring Sale, UK

Audrey Smith A re colouring of a 4x4 setting of the variation I made to the Clay's Choice Block from the EQ Library. I used The Girl's Favourite block and converted it to a Stencil Pattern which I applied on layer 3 until I had recoloured the quilt, then I removed it. Hopefully you can see the big Girl's Favourite block Sale, UK

Audrey Smith A recolouring colouring of a 4x4 setting of the Star Swirl block from the EQ Library. I had first flipped alternate blocks and rotated them . I hope that falls within the rules as it is still the same block recoloured Sale, UK

Beth Polvino Block chosen for it's number of pieces to allow lots of coloring. I did several samples before settling on just 2 tops to send. North Cape May, NJ |
Beth Polvino Chosen because it was a 6 patch with lots of pieces. I thought this block would give me lots of opportunity. North Cape May, NJ |

Beth Polvino Block chosen for it's number of pieces to allow lots of coloring. I also did on layout on point but decided that a horizontial and on point layouts probably didn't fit the rules. North Cape May, NJ |
