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.

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
Aussie Floral Inspiration 5, 6
Most of the flora which inspired these designs does not grow with fresh green leaves and with pretty coloured flowers. Our most obvious flora comes in bright reds, yellows and oranges, though hidden away in the bush there are some … Continue reading

Very busy! Love the second design! The blocks are still busy, but there are a lot less of them. Love the sashing too.

Abigail Bolton Design 1, 2
This project file is now 1 day old, though many of the blocks were waiting for some attention. About half of the blocks in the sampler above are new variations on the theme. Love the design above, but will continue … Continue reading
Patch Play 33, 34
In this project file I have used blocks from the Electric Quilt library which have been tweaked a little to cretae border blocks from the original applique cross designs. Once again, I cannot pick a favourite from today’s designs.

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
Border Beauties 55, 56
I like interesting borders, and in the design above there are 4 of them! Another four interesting borders, plus a very simple atrip border which is very effective in this design.
Wanda’s Weeds 1, 2
Today’s designs use blocks I have been playing with over the last few days, adding bits, altering bits, removing bits, and then when I tried designing the first quilt discovered I needed to do more alterations. The name of the … Continue reading
Autumn Daze Quilting 26, 27, 28
Autumn days are here, and today I hope to get my hands dirty while emptying some plant pots … I have to do some clearing of weeds first, but have made up my mind which plants to put where. I … Continue reading

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
