And, while I didn't design a quilt specifically for the challenge, I decided to play around with the Fandangle fabrics in EQ.
Just for fun, this is the mini quilt design I made for the the Fandangle Blog Hop using the applique pattern from Modern Plus Sign Quilts, Cute as a Button.
And, this is the actual mini quilt. I do believe the scale is identical. There are more photos in my post here for the Fandangle Blog Hop.
I almost used this version where the background of the center square was the beaded curtain print also. I ended up using triangle trinkets since there was still good contrast with the button applique from confetti crosshatch in teal.
The deadline to enter your EQ design rendered in Fandangle is today. There's still time...all you need to do is design a quilt in EQ8, EQ7, EQStitch or EQ Mini and follow a couple of other rules. All the details are in the link-up post found here. You could possibly win the fabric to make your design.
How awesome to have the scale so perfectly matched, Paige! :)
ReplyDeleteLovely, and the colours are superb together.
ReplyDeleteEven with EQ8, I'm sure not the designer you are! While I sometimes like a challenge, this one was too overwhelming. There's so much new to learn with EQ8, that I'd spend more time playing with the program than actually designing. I know this because I recently attempted designing an EQ8 block using only bias tape shapes. I couldn't figure out how to create wide curves. Maybe that's too much to ask of EQ8... I don't know. Anyway, you've certainly got it mastered! Beautiful work!
ReplyDeleteI love this quilt!!
ReplyDeleteGreat design and I love seeing the rendering and the actual quilt together!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed seeing how closely the EQ mock up matched to the actual mini! Such a fun mini!!
ReplyDeleteLooks great. I entered, but it was my first attempt at using EQ. Now sure how well I did, but I'm happy I gave it a try.
ReplyDeleteVery nice, modern design. Those Fandangle fabrics are so nice.
