I love curves and all the blocks with curves in the world! So I use all the ones provided on EQ6 and BLOCK BASE. My style and approach to design may be different from other quilters; I try to give a contemporary twist to my designs and to make blocks compatible with my big print fabrics. The new trend in quilting is big prints, big blocks, and easy to sew! I think curved blocks are not used to their fullest potential and they are so fun. Plus, believe it or not, I never piece a curved block; I use an appliqué technique to encourage quilters to sew curved blocks and not to be afraid of curves! I have a tutorial on my blog and people love it… “curved seams 101”. I print my templates from EQ6, but I use them differently…
On my quilt “Refreshing Spa Bubbles” I was looking for a lot of movement, and I think I achieved that! It’s very modern, fast to sew, and the result is an appealing and attractive quilt (in my opinion).
I am very happy with the software; you made a lot of improvements from EQ5. Would recommend it to anybody; it is very versatile!!”
