Club EQ Album: July 2004 Challenge: Pieced Borders! Page 3
Use
pieced border blocks from the EQ5 Block Library to create at least
one border around a quilt that you design. You'll find four pages of
border blocks under: Please restrict your borders for this challenge to pieced border blocks. We'll save appliqué and vines for another challenge. |

Louise Grant Goose Tracks block set and used in a quilt then imported
as a bitmap picture Glendale, AZ USA |
Lynne Chambliss This is an actual quilt top that I hand pieced several years ago, during a time of stress; hence the name. The block was a traditional one I found in a quilting magazine; it was called Mayflower. I designed the border to give the center breathing room and to pick up the many reds in the prints. I plan to finish it now and to machine quilt it. Tucson, AZ, USA |

Lynne Chambliss The center of this quilt was one I designed for the 35 four patch challenge and didn't use. I redrafted the center of the star block to make it easier to piece. The origional quilt had three simple mitered borders. Tucson, AZ, USA |

Martha Flanagan After all the chat on the list about the Prairie Braid block I decided to use it as a border block. Albany, NY |
Mary McManus I made a scrap pineapple with a pieced border I designed myself in EQ and would have liked to use that one except my understanding is we were restricrted to the border blocks in the program. This is the closest I could come to my original one and still only use blocks in EQ, (but with very different colors}. Forest Park, IL |

M. Endres Okay, my obsession with cats and quilts is now "bordering"
on insanity! :) |
M. Endres I included this design in the challenge to show how the border blocks can be used in places other than your quilt borders. Here, rows of border blocks closely resemble traditional Seminole patchwork. |

Miriana It is so fascinating to start with absolutely no concept of what one is going to do and then just experiment and play. The way the brain works in creativity when one lets loose is amazing. I love the challenges for that reason. I have only done one other challenge (the June 04) and do try to design quilts I will make. I decided on simplicity this time and no drawings. I didnt think I would enjoy it as much and yet it was so fun ! This one is only a 40x40 wallhanging, but I may sew out a quilt instead. |

Rhonda Dayton My one and only Feather Star block may get it's first border. The Feather Star is surrounded with King's Crown and Block in the corner that was design to continue the design, after it was done it looked just like Mosaic #19. Albany, NY |
Rhonda Dayton This design was completed in less than half hour after I read this month's challenge. Albany, NY

Rory Kirby Thank goodness nobody will ever want to sew this! Just a challenge in geometry, with little in the way of balance, in fact it would be better if it were inside out! Clearly suffering from summer heat Victoria, BC |
