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.

Beaded Borders 13, 14
This project file was started so I could play with beaded applique borders, in particular, getting around corners. String of beads, no matter how I tangle them up, are my favourite traditional style applique quilts to play with virtually, as … Continue reading

I like it! Pretty and scrappy, or pretty scrappy. In the second one I know what I was trying to do by adding the contrast fan fabric, but I know I chose the wrong fabric.
Beaded Border 11, 12
Love just about every String of Beads quilt design I have seen, including the one above. And the one below!
Christmas Mix of Beads 7, 8
Love the design above … lots of tiny pieces can be fused onto the background, and machine or hand stitched to secure them. One of the trees I have let out of storage so far I refer to as The … Continue reading
