I used the Nine Patch Star block in the Special Effects -
9 layout. The structure of the layout is obscured and there
are many opportunities to color secondary designs.

I used the Special Effects - 5 layout, which resembles the
Friendship Link block from the 30s. I liked blending colors
for a transparent look in the border.

Blocks used are the Spring Beauty and Paducah Peony. I used
the Special Effects 11 Quilt Layout. Then I experimented with
colors to get the transparency effects.

Although the layout shows more clearly in this one, I think
it is a fun look. Not sure I'd want to piece it, however!

I liked the way this block looked in this layout. I did some
block rotation to get the effects I wanted on where the blocks
joined.

I was intrigued by the plain shapes that appeared when I
put this block in Special Effects layout 9. I see small blue
planes headed toward each other while large red ones swirl
around the coners. Lots of possibilities.

I thought it was fun using both this block full of movement
and the Special effects layout # 9, twisting and turning the
block.
I had first colored the blocks with a lot of great batiks,
but the file size turned out to be huge.

This is Special Effects Layout #11 with classic Log Cabin
and Courthouse Steps (or Log Cabin 2) blocks.
I like the balance achieved by dropping well-known standard
blocks into unusual settings.

I really like the way this quilt has a random look. It might
work well with other quilts that need a random placement.
I plan on trying it with other block patterns.

Block is Log Cabin from EQ Library
Quilt is 32"x32"
I tried to design a quilt that was doable.
I just got the Angle Play CD and am
having fun with the very different blocks.
Angle Play has an excellent collection of Layout Library quilts
to chose from.
Besides all of the blocks and fabrics.
I am finding that I had to be careful when
using the fabrics from Angle Play. Personally I have to really
study the blocks when choosing fabrics.
I thought I was using fabrics that were complimentary but
then when I put them into a quilt they weren't pleasing to
the eye.
So this is a challenge, but, it's a good kind of challenge.
I think I really need the book..

I used the Special Effects - 3 and filled it with the Carrie
Nation Quilt block.
The colours remind me of the sea and the movement remionds
me of the wind, hence the name.

I used the Special Effects - 11 and filled it with the Lattice
Square block.
It's meant to look like a lattice window. I like this one
so much, I think I might actually make it one day. Like I
need another project LOL!
