Somebody asked what else I had in the EQ vault … I had forgotten this lot!
Who needs a lot of complicated block designs to make an interesting quilt?
Simple sashing with stars in the sashing squares.
Lots of room for quilting.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

OMG OMG OMG! I want, I want, I want! Couldnt agree more with first the comment already made. Need to find some not quite white to add to my black and white and reds. Big book mark for these ones.
Karen,
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I am surprised at the reaction to these … and I think there are some better designs waiting in the project file for their moment in the spotlight. Of course, we all like different stuff!
I think the reaction does show that we don’t need twenty blocks in all the colours of the rainbow to make an eye catching quilt.

Understated gorgeousness! Especially love the second design!
Thank you Laura.
Understated is popular today it seems … a reaction to the many very busy quilts around perhaps.

Loving this pattern. Like the girls said Gorgeous !!!!!! This will help me get back into quilting again.
Orlie,
Thank you … I want inspiration today to sort out some paper which is on my cutting table … not just throw it aside like I have several times before. Then the magic can start!
