I set everything up yesterday to make today’s choice of virtual quilt quick and easy. So this morning I found a project file with a sampler ready to add some virtual designs and I started playing.
The colour scheme is one I used a lot of in the 1980s when I first started, and from memory, I think I picked the fabrics after I had been washing some of those old quilts.
I am thinking of starting a new series so I can play with something totally different, but that won’t happen today! Well, not for you, anyway.
Today’s virtual quilts are from that play session, which will continue after I share these two!
A lot of the blocks are originals, some are from the EQ library, and some will be modified as I see fit!
I have just a minute to publishing deadline … so I am going to hit the publish button and get back to playing!
(And also check that I haven’t started this series in another project file somewhere in the depths of my documents files.)

The dusty pink is lovely!
I still like the quilts I made in those colours … and there are enough scraps to start another one!

It’s Christmas in the Spring time! This is what the beginning of spring feels like. Apple and plum blossom and budding new leaves.
Karen,
I am starting to think that you see Christmas everywhere … something I can relate too!

Judy, You really know how to make it hard to pick a pattern. This is Super GREAT. I really enjoy how you can come up with all the patterns.
Orlie,
I didn’t know I could come up with so many designs, but playing in EQ has taught me heaps about what works when designing quilts. Most of the lessons are things I would never have tried if i was making real quilts … there is not enough money in my fabric budget to buy enough fabric to experiment with, and doing it on paper would take a lot of colour pencils. Not enough time in one lifetime either!
