To make the outside crust, I started with the Polygon   tool.I drew an octagon and clicked Add Nodes  .I clicked Converted Lines to Curves .I used the blue handles to adjust the curves. Once I had a outside crust shape I liked, I used the Oval tool to draw the top crust.

User spotlight: Evelyn Townsend

EQ user Evelyn Townsend recently emailed us with a project to share.   Evelyn says, “I designed the table runner project for the Friendship Circle chapter of the Richmond Quilt Guild.  We were in the third and final month of a three month “Purge and Splurge” challenge in which members were challenged to use fabrics from their stash that had a fall theme.  Since I am the program director, I thought a simple table runner would be a good project to use the fall fabrics.  I taught the class using the paper piecing technique since both log cabin and flying geese blocks can be challenging to piece accurately.  I did some fabric painting on my when I finished the quilting.”         Here is the finished quilt. It looks great! You can download the project here, (for EQ7) if you’d like. She has also offered other projects over

LOTS of Free Autumn Downloads

Posted 10-02-2013 by | Posted in: Downloads

We’ve been doing Free Quilt Design Wizard projects for 10 years! If you are not familiar with them, you should check them out. Especially since they can also be opened in EQ6 and EQ7. We also give you 20-30 free fabrics every month, a few free blocks and a cute little project (usually designed by me). For our 10th anniversary I’ve collected some of my favorite autumn downloads. By default they will try to open in QDW. If you want to open them in EQ here are the instructions. If this inspires you to make something, let us know! Email photos to Heidi@electricquilt.com.
