Drama Teen declared at 10 that she needed a room update and wanted to get rid of the quilt that she so desired at 6. I love EQ for all of the reasons you stated. It's so helpful to get the pattern right before you buy the fabric or start cutting.

I did mine in Cherrywood fabrics, the colors are muted, but the sueded texture is pretty. My son, who turns 19 in two days, had a much loved quilt on his bed too. Its tough to change the worn quilts out, but I feel if they know its made with love for them, well, its like getting another hug from you.

The quilt will be fabulous and I'm sure will be just as loved as the first one (which is still a keeper, for memory's sake, right?). Who needs a skirt when you can wear your comfies and quilt, right???

His old quilt is just darling but now that he is older, a new design is needed I believe. The Modern Building Blocks quilt with your color choices will be very striking.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06844124404215583301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3816121512164080677.post-60272687089061253882016-08-12T08:44:11.665-04:002016-08-12T08:44:11.665-04:00Your son's froggy quilt has obviously been wel...Your son's froggy quilt has obviously been well loved. What more can you want when you make a quilt for someone else. I love I Spy quilts, but have never seen one as intricate as yours.

That painting your mom did is amazing! I am impressed at the way you go the extra mile to finish a design and learn what you need to learn. I tried to design just ONE block using the Word drawing tool and it took me forever! Of course, EQ7 probably makes all of that a lot easier, I suppose that's the point of owning it. :) And last but not least, your tweaked quilt design is going to be smashing! Have you showed it to your son or is it going to be a surprise? Oh, by the way, I nominated you for the One Lovely Blog Award! See my August 9 post.

Keep all the designer details on the notecard and then I can get rid of the magazine when necessary. That way I get EQ practise and I get to store my patterns without taking up any space in my sewing room.
