Fiddling with Fabric 13, 14 from Virtual Quilter

I don’t know too many quilters who don’t fiddle with fabric every chance they get, and I think most of us get a little fidgety if we go too long without touching our fabric stash!

All the designs in this project file would be fairly fiddly to make up, but I guess it would give us an excuse to fiddle with the fabric.

Floral Wedding OP 53, 54 from Virtual Quilter

Very pretty.

It could be fun to mix up the flower fabrics a bit more interesting to work on … perhaps even totally scrappy!

After Pompeii OP 41, 42 from Virtual Quilter

Love the dainty applique in contrast to the Double Wedding Rings.

I like the second design, but the first is my favourite of these two.

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.

Deena’s Delight OP 5,6 from Virtual Quilter

Another project file containing fiddly designs, this time set on point. I love the colours!

Almost the same as the first, up until the final row of blocks.

Fiddlebobs OP 23, 24 from Virtual Quilter

I had a glimpse of some antique quilts a week ago, and these designs would have blended in well.

I love the second one.

EQ Album OP 49, 50 from Virtual Quilter

A very interesting design, though the colours in this project file are rather dull.

Love the way the clusters of four appliques form an interesting circle when set on point. They don’t do that when in a straight setting.

Super 7s OP 31, 32 from Virtual Quilter

Love the centre, but I am not very impressed with the surroundings.

Wow! What a difference a few clicks can make! Love the result.

EQ 4s OP 29, 30 from Virtual Quilter

Interesting, though I keep turning my head to a 45 degree angle to see what the blocks look like on the straight!

I like the second one. Not my usual number of blocks in a design, but could be made with larger blocks to make a double or queen size quilt.

Hi 5s OP 45, 46 from Virtual Quilter

Another project file of on point quilt designs. I love the star with the white background in the design above.

The second design is very interesting!

Deena’s Delight OP 1, 2 from Virtual Quilter

I liked playing with these blocks in the straight setting, so decided to try setting them on point.

I love the second design!

Will have to start adding quilting motifs to both the project files in the very near future.

EQ Dozen OP 57, 58 from Virtual Quilter

All the blocks in this project file, and others which have the EQ prefix, are designs direct from the Electric Quilt Block Library. Though i have to admit that I did play with one of the blocks. The centre block in the design above is from the library, which I divided to make four corner blocks. Well, one corner block which I can turn around to use in four corners.

I like the first design as there is is room for quilting to provide interesting texture.

Also like the second design which also has space for added texture after outlining ...

7 Patch Puzzle 11, 12 from Virtual Quilter

I like the first design! Very interesting.

A bit different to the average pieced patchwork quilt. The blocks are 7 patch and set on point.

Interesting! Very basic blocks on point.

Love the second one!

EQ 9x9s OP 25, 26 from Virtual Quilter

Starry night, even though there are just five star blocks!

I should start a new project file with the same fabric choices as this one, but with all star blocks.

Red, Black and White 11, 12 from Virtual Quilter

I am trying to break away from pink, purple and green!

This project file has been sitting around being ignored for two years, probably because it is in colors I wouldn’t want to live with. However, strong colours in a dull environment can liven up the surroundings.

I love the second design, but I admit that it would lose a lot of impact if it was in my preferred colour range.

Christmas Star for Selina 3, 4 from Virtual Quilter

All my life Christmas decorations were based around red, white and green with gold stars, but in the last few years various shades of blue have become popular. I love the design just as they are, but would put them away for Christmas, or maybe decorate a spare room in these colours.

Love the second design.

EQ OP 35, 36 from Virtual Quilter

This project file has blocks direct from the Electric Quilt library.

I love the border around the first design.

Hmmm … the colouring in the second design is sort of Christmassy … anyone would think that I have let some of my Christmas decorations out of storage.

EQ Mods OP 19, 20 from Virtual Quilter

I started s project file with blocks from the Electric Quilt block library, modified some of them, and played with them. Eventually I got sick of using them in straight settings, and tipped them on point in a new project, and I love the results.

The second design is interesting, but my favourite is the first one, more for the colour placement than the actual layout.
