EQ Printable Canvas Creations by Tania Cardenas
Posted 12-20-2010 by Sarah | Posted in: Uncategorized
I’ve been talking with Tania recently about how pleased she is working with EQ Printables with her canvas creations. These works of art are so cute! Tania explains what she does and why she loves EQ Printables: I have always loved photography and graphic design as well as textiles, textures, and colors. I had no idea that I could combine these things into one wonderful hobby until I found about about inkjet fabric. I originally started out with some cheaper inkjet fabric that I picked up at a local craft store. I didn’t think there would be much of a difference between this and the higher end products. I immediately started having issues with my current inkjet fabrics. The images were coming out dull and experiencing massive quality loss with even the first wash. After hearing and reading so many fabulous things about EQ Printables, I decided to give them a

Becky explains: I volunteered to design and make the quilt for my son’s senior high school class. It will be auctioned, with proceeds benefiting the school.

At the end of their junior year, each of the 68 boys donated their favorite tie, which I had to design into the quilt. I bought EQ6 for this project and learned it quickly, so I could play around with the possibilities. I designed the paper pieced pattern, as well, on EQ6 – the jacket/shirt/tie blocks.

Best of Quilter's Newsletter Review
Posted 12-13-2010 by Sarah | Posted in: Uncategorized
Check out this Best of Quilters Newsletter review by Munaiba Khan on her SewJounal site. Munaiba writes: In addition to all the quilts which are lovely to look at there are heaps of really useful articles. There’s a 13 part series on “Taking the Math Out” which includes just about every yardage chart you will ever need for everything from lone star quilts to hexagons, backings, borders and more.It includes articles on two colour binding, raw-edged appliqué, feathered stars, family history quilts, colour ideas from Kaffe Fassett, Roberta Horton and Liza Prior Lucy and the list goes on… The best thing about this CD – apart from it’s tiny price tag of $14.97 (plus postage) is that it’s stand alone software. While it is compatible with EQ6 and EQ7 you don’t need EQ at all to play with this. In fact if you’re wondering whether EQ is for you this might
