Fran’s Five Patches 13, 14 from Virtual Quilter

Always pretty in pink!

Hard to pick a favourite … maybe the second one … maybe not.

Felicity’s Five Patches 13, 14 from Virtual Quilter

Most of us avoid blocks with acute angles, but they can make spectacular quilts.

I love the second design.

5P Alpine Cross + Mods 3, 4 from Virtual Quilter

Alpine Cross is a block I would not choose to use in a real quilt, but I challenged myself to at least give it a go.

The Alpine Cross features in the first design, but the modifications took over in the second design.

I like blocks which are symmetrical, and I can see a different challenge to tackle in the future … playing with 5P blocks to see just how many symmetrical variations I can find.

Hi 5s Highlights 17, 18 from Virtual Quilter

Very interesting design, and I like the large print fabrics for borders.

I love the way the pieced blocks have become part of a very different border design. I should try that sort of thing more often.

Hi 5s OP 47, 48 from Virtual Quilter

Very interesting. I like the blank space which is a great space for some quilting.

I love the second design! The stars just shine.

Five Patch Fragments 29, 30 from Virtual Quilter

Rather interesting!

The second deign is a bit too pink for my taste … needs more blue/purple.

Fran’s Five Patches 11, 12 from Virtual Quilter

Interesting, but too busy for me.

That’s better!

5P Alpine Cross + Mods 1, 2 from Virtual Quilter

Found this project file waiting patiently to be opened again. It was created a couple of years ago when I was thinking that I should try using some blocks I didn’t like much, and some fabrics in colours I didn’t like much.

I am not sure where the starting block came from, possibly from EQ library, possibly came from one of my play sessions, or seen in a book or magazine. Some of the modifications are in both books and the EQ library.

The second design is interesting, and I love the border combination.

Five Patch Fragments OP 19, 20 from Virtual Quilter

Interesting design first up today.

On point setting makes the blocks appear very different to what they look like in a straight setting.

I think I like the second one best today.

Five Patch Fragments + Florals 1, 2 from Virtual Quilter

A new project file to play with … so far nothing exciting, but I am interested enough to keep playing, though it is rare for me to cancel a project file once I have found a name.

A very basic design above, but an indication that it could get more interesting.
