"Draw your own block. Do NOT use a block as is from the EQ Block Library or any other
EQ product. You may alter a block by adding or removing lines, superimposing two blocks,
combining blocks to create a new single block, or draw an original block. Set the block(s)
into a quilt."

The wall hanging uses the Larkspur wreath in a simple four block
quilt.

My custom block is actually a MINI Crazy Quilt too!
I envision this block as a mini crazy quilt sachet or wall hanging,
but it can easily be used as a block on a pillow, shirt or tote bag
too. The yellow outline is a guide to see what the quilt would look
like with piping, ruffles, or lace trim.
Substitute the embroideries for real lace trim, accents, and buttons.
Happy Valentines Day!

"May Pinwheel" has been quartered and symmetry applied
a couple times. Two favorite things in EQ is Symmetry Tool and Fabric
swap, gave me a lot to play with.
Albany, NY

This is my first submission for the EQ Challenge. I used the Spring
Flower Border as my block.
I made a promise to myself to learn to use EQ, not just keep buying
the upgrades and let it sit there! I look forward to participating
in more challenges.

Designed for clubEQ January, 2007
|
First I took the Hawaiian Applique Scroll block and added lines to
the center to give the block a patchy background. For the border,
I took the same block and cut the Hawaiian applique down to 1/4 of
the block. Then I put two back to back. Latte quilts are so popular
now and here is another.

This was designed around these fabrics during a snow storm and I

my favorite colors depicting my favorite place.

Autumn's Promise is done using the same original block as "Sailing
into a Keywest Sunset."

For this quilt I simplified the dahlia block and placed in in alternate
squares to give a more open look to the quilt.

Nothing

I took two blocks from the library and combined them Then I deleted
some lines and added others. I thought the finished result looked
like one of those glass paperweights made up of hundreds of pieces
of glass.
|
I changed the Poppy block and made four new ones with the merge function.
I also used a Strip block and changed it.

A combination of Mosaic No. 17 block and one quarter of the Delectable

of this block placed in various quilt settings.

I wondered how an asymmetrical NYB would look, so I drew something
similar in EQ6. The border blocks are "original" also. The
quilt started out to be mainly green but quickly morphed into the
fruity colors you see now. This is my first EQ quilt - what fun!
Fairbanks, Alaska
|
This could also be called "Dreaming of the Tropics" -a
common activity in the long dark Alaskan winter. Rosa Jamaica (Hibiscus
in Spanish) started with a star block from the EQ6 library, but I
can't remember which one, and not many if any of the original lines
remain.

I used the tangled star block that I changed in 3 different blocks
(using round shapes). I used a celtic border (in EQ6 library) to complete
the quilt.
France
|
I designed the circle block and then with the help a friend (thanks
Cécile!) I put colors and the borders.
France
|
The inspiration for this quilt came from a painted floor design.
The corners of the heart block provide the extra points on the ouside
edges of the stars. The star block itself was modifed from one in
the "album block" category, as this quilt was originally
designed in EQ5 and there was no sawtooth star in the library. I've
since discovered that there is one in EQ6, but feel I am not cheating
in still using it as it is altered by the interaction with the heart
block. The treetop is simply divided in two to make it more "scrappy" and
to comply with the challenge of not using a block in its original format.
Guildford, England
|
I used an on-point layout for this quilt, setting the drawn blocks
that form the outer points of the stars in the sashing. The heart
motive has been modified by adding an additional heart inside the
first.

The block is a plain eight point star.
The layout is a plain horizontal quilt. The eight point star looks
elegant in these muted colors, like a tile floor.
The border is a stripe pattern, and the corners are Corner 11.
Kewaskum, WI
|
The block is Corner 11, with curved lines instead of straight. Rotating
in the baby blocks setting creates many patterns. This one looks like
stained glass.
The border is single swags.

The drunkard's path blockhas been t fascination. I have made several

on a designs with flowers in the 'moons'.

I have only been using EQ5 for a few months and love it! I especially
enjoy editing a block or learning to draw my own. I look forward to
constructioning in fabric a quilt that I have designed in EQ.

I had nothing in mind when I desiged this quilt, it just sort of
evolved. I guess I am getting spring fever early this year.

I made this block by using EQ's wreath maker to create a four-tulip
crossing design. I then used the wreath function a second time to
create a wreath consisting of four of the tulip crosses.
