Dancing Starflowers
Another placement
using the altered blocks from the EQ Star 2 block. I used the rotate
tool for the center design.
The pinks represents the flowers, the green the leaves, the blue is
the sky & the pale yellow background is the sunshine.

Feeling Flaky
Original block was Spinning Snowflake.
The block was made of both pieced and appliqued elements. This was what
I got when I split them into a pieced block and an applique block.

I am fairly new to EQ and this is my first challenge. It was fun and I hope through challenges I will develop more imagination for designs & fabrics.

Crossing Winds Variation
Made using the block Crossing Winds. Lots of fun to make. Just hope
I did this right. Used an on point layout for this top. I made another
quilt with the same block I love but decided to start over with a second
block.

The Colors of Jewels
Made using the block Jewel. Lots of fun to make and color. The fabric
colors remind me of an Amish quilt except for the fish print.

Old Dutch Garden
I gave this quilt the name "Old Dutch Garden"
You see this garden of small buxus (roses) and inside the flowers. These
sort of gardens are always symmetrical. You can see this Garden by the
canal houses in Amsterdam and bigger ones by the country houses outside.

Mayflower Garden
I chose the Mayflower
(OCS/Wheeler) or Block 2009.5 from BlockBase as my starting block because
it had both curved and straight lines.
I began by first eliminating the center crossed lines and the larger
arcs in the corners leaving just four corner squares with the smaller
arcs and the V opening into the corners. The second block was altered
by eliminating all but the cross and centre square and the four large
arcs.
Two more blocks were created by eliminating all the straight lines and
then all the curved lines.
As a result I ended up with four altered blocks which I used in this
quilt along with the original block.

Mayflower Tablerunner
The variations
are endless - each time I changed the position of a block or the layout
I got a different pattern. In this table runner, I decided to just use
two colours - in one of the altered blocks, I reversed the position
of the dark and light fabrics.
I used the Interlocking Stencil block from the EQ library to "quilt"
the blocks in this version.

A Parisian Fantasy
I altered the Star and Chains block to get the open centered alternate
block -- a perfect spot for feathers or applique. I used the Paris Please
palette in EQ5 and a ribbon block for the border. It makes a very feminine
looking quilt.
