Road to California 2013 Quilters’ Conference and Showcase contests have come to a close. And we found at least one EQ user in the bunch! Debra Crine takes the award for Best Quilt from First Time Entrant. Congratulations Debra! (See all the winners here. )

I asked Debra to tell me more about her quilts. She says:

Although I am an east coast girl I love the colors, motifs and designs used in southwestern art. This quilt (Desert Daze) was designed in EQ. Majority of the fabrics used are my own hand dyes. I’ve been using EQ since version 5 and design all of my “traditional” quilts using your software. You can see more of my work on my website. Desert Daze, Kiwi, A Splash of Lime and Star Light (soon to be posted) were all designed using EQ.  Star Light is a finalist in this years New Quilts from Old Favorites competition. Kiwi received a 3rd place ribbon in the 2012 NQA show.  

Thanks for sharing your beautiful quilts with us, Debra!
