Use the EQ6 Block Library and the Embroidery Library to design a quilt highlighting baskets and their contents. Or design your own block and/or embroidery. You must use embroidery somewhere in your design.

Designed for May, 2007, clubEQ challenge: Baskets and Embroidery.
Many of my special interests are displayed on these shelves. I used
embroidery and pieced blocks from EQ6 as well as the text tool to
tell some of my "story."

Designed for May, 2007, clubEQ challenge: Baskets and Embroidery.
To create a non-traditional setting for the traditional Basket blocks,
I set blocks into an 8-Point Star layout from the Layout Library>Basics
by Style>Stars. The Feathers are from the Embroidery Library.
The coloring of the quilt evolved by using the new Random Recolor
tool.

This reminds me of the year I planted my flower borders with all
sorts of marigolds, coriopsis, coxcombs, and other red and orange
flowers. They looked so pretty against my white picket fence but when
I went out to get a bouquet for my dining room I realized that none
of my beautiful flowers would go in my pink and blue wallpaper. I
ended up having lots of orange and yellow bouquets for my kitchen.

I love with working with the Delft Blue colors, but when I finished
this, it just seemed to cry out for a zinger fabric. The hot pink
seemed to holler "Pick me, pick me!" The little spools seemed
to fit the corners perfectly once I changed the colors.

The blocks are from the EQ Libraries and the avaiable Embroideries
I had a lot of fun with the embroideries which I had not used at all
before.
I couldn't figure out how to flip them though

Sometimes less is more. In my mind's eye I can see these lovely baskets
of flowers by Cactus Punch adorning a simple tablecloth.

Since my sewing machine does not have the capability to link to my
machine for embroideries I designed my second quilt with quilting
stencils. Not exactly emboideries, but this I can do.

These embroideries are from EQ library, Cactus Punch - Always Fun
- Baskets. So this quilt satisfies the challenge criteria. But my
sewing machine does not have the capability to link to my computer
for embroideries and so I could never make this quilt.

This tablerunner layout came from the EQ Layout Library. I used
both Pieced blocks and Embroidered blocks for the runner. And "The
Quiltmaker Collection Vol 1 " arrived in time for me to use one
of the designs to complement the EQ6 border stencil.

There were a lot of baskets in the embroidery library so I decided
to make a "sampler" quilt using them as well as some of
the pieced basket blocks from the EQ6 block library. I chose "Basics
by Style - Irregular Grids - 17" from the layout library as my
starting point. I also used the printing on the quilt feature. And
"The Quiltmaker Collection Vol 1 " arrived in time for me
to use one of the designs to complement the EQ6 border stencil.

This 20" x 33" row quilt was designed for a narrow telephone
nook. The basket at the top is a variation of Curved Handle Basket
from the Foundation Pieced library. The bottom row is Basket Pinwheel
from the Contemporary Pieced library. Embroideries are by Pfaff and
Cactus Punch.
My 17-year-old sewing machine does 'first generation' embroidery
so as a designer of quilts using modern embroidery, I'm a bit bogus.

This quilt is Ami's auction size: 9" x 11.5". It is probably
of no use as a pattern, though: I sized the embroidery motifs at whim
and I don't know if they are that flexible in actuality.
The basket is an adaption of the 'Curved Handle Basket' from the
Foundation Pieced library. The embroideries are from Cactus Punch
and Viking.

Thought I'd get a jump on Christmas decorating! I followed Barb's
lead and started with a template from the Quick Quilts project collection.
I tweaked the border to personalize it, and then added a basket block
and an embroidered poinsettia to meet the requirements of this month's
challenge.

I used blocks from EQ6 libray. I found that the pieced basket blocks
had a modern touch and that's why I used a embroidery block with also
a "contemporary" look.
Cheers from France.

This quilt represents one of my other loves - cats. Both blocks
and embroidery come from the EQ library.
The little black and white cat in the bottom left hand corner, represents
my own cat, Bianca who died 2 years ago aged 19.

The basket blocks were adapted from some I saw in a French quilting
magazine, "Quiltmannia", the emboidery comes from the EQ
library. This quilt represents one of the things I like to do.

The center part of this quilt was the design I used in my first quilt
over 20 years ago. It was made using poly cottons and cottons with
a strawberry print in two colour ways and looks as fresh today as
when it was first made. There is only a very little machine quilting
on it. This is how I would use the same design if I did it again.
