the aged elegance...is that EQ design for another quilt, or the no diamonds quilt...you didn't have star in center?
Both of those pictures are beautiful whatever they are going with.
Wish I had an EQ6, but I have a ton of books and patterns, but I am like you, in that, I never do a pattern 'as is'. Got to put my own stamp on it.
I can only imagine what I might come up with, if I had one of those. :D
