Virtual Quilts?
I am a quilter who uses a computer program to design way more quilts than I could ever make in several lifetimes.
The quilts featured on this site have never been made. No stash has been harmed in the process.
This site is a chance to show the un-used and unseen designs to others, and occasionally share designs by making some EQ8 project files available by email on request.
Please note that my only association with the Electric Quilt Company is as a very satisfied customer.
I prefer to be in a tag free zone and award free area. I am just happy to know you came for a look.

Lovin’ Spoonfull in the Pink 15, 16
So pretty in pink … maybe a little bit over the top, but I like it. Almost over the top … needs some colour editing perhaps!

Clamshells 13, 14
A very different twist to the traditional clamshell. I like the addition of String of Beads, another oldy but goody! I find it is always interesting to try something different with old designs although the chances of me making a … Continue reading
Hearts Growing 5, 6
Hearts all over the quilt! I am not sure if I like the space around the outside for quilting … perhaps I would be sure of it with different quilting. Another excuse to play with Electric Quilt … as if … Continue reading
Ferns and Flora 21, 22
Nice, but would need some quilting! I would use the centre block as the quilting design. The second one would also need some quilting, but mainly just background fill.
A Whiter Shade on Gold Quilted 21, 22
I selected some pale fabrics with minimal contrast, and started playing. If I live long enough I will make at least one example of these designs. The hardesst part will be selecting a design, not the fabrics. I cannot pick … Continue reading
Ann’s Album Q ‘n’ A 23, 24
I love playing ‘hide and Seek’ with sashing … to be able to make up designs like the one above just add sashing to blocks as usual, except that sometimes you use the background fabric of the blocks, but not … Continue reading
A Spoonful of Sugar 11, 12
Very pretty, and would be pretty time consuming to make it up! Oops, a bit of a booboo in the second design ,,, glad I don’t have to unpick it!

Watching Grass Grow 3, 4
I got all excited about the possibilities of these designs, then had to spend time in the garden trying to remove weeds which were, and still are, almost winning the war against the flowers, bulbs and shrubs. This morning I … Continue reading

Beth’s Brunsvigia Quilts 21, 22
Today’s designs make use of a feature of Electric Quilt which allows us to use a feature which will turn any block diagram which uses squares and rectangles into a quilt layout. I love the second design!
