Four New Designs
 

I've been working on these new designs all week and out of about 12 I've created in last couple weeks I like at least 7 of them which I hope to complete putting together this year. I have printed all of them along with the templates, colored photo's, details on how to place the pieces for sewing and than get them quilted.

#1 I've named Ferris Wheels Wonderment only because when I look at it I can literally count at least 10 Ferris Wheels moving in motion.

Quilt Layout Used is Baby Block Layout; used two blocks Diamond In A Square and Log Cabin Block; I super imposed the log cabin block inside the diamond in the square. I than manipulated it all once I placed it in the baby block quilt layout and what you see here is what I got.

Some of you probably won't be able to see it but personally I can find at least ten ferris wheels moving in motion giving it sort of a 3D effect. And when I blink my eyes they all seem to be moving.

OK so call me crazy but I can see it.

#2 This one I've named Wind Beneath My Wings because I can actually see birds with wings moving about seemlessly through what appears to me as a gentle breeze moving them along and each supporting each other which reminded me of the song Wind Beneath My Wings.

I used the quilt layout Baby Block layout; along with these blocks .... Boise, Checkerboard, and Good Luck block.

Once I laid them in random motion in the baby block layout I started fractuing them to what you see here.

#3 This one I've named Blazing Mirrors because that is what it makes me think of, mirrors just floating around into a space moving seemingly through a puzzle of sorts or a maze trying to get to where it wants to go.

For this one I used the quilt layout style Variable Blocks. I placed the following blocks on the layout Flagstones, and Baton Rouge Block. I randomly placed them in each variable blocks in quilt layout and like I always do I started trying to manipulate it all to give it a geometric design of sorts.

#4 I have called this one Drifting Snow Among The Stars; another redition of what I did the other week. I think I like this one better.

I hate it when this sends itself before I'm finished writing what I want to say.

Anyway this 4th one I used a Horizontal Quilt Layout along with the Pinwheel Square block, and the 25 Patch block. Here again I placed the two blocks randomly and then proceeded to break up the 25 Patch block and the results you see here is what I got.

I am going to be busy this weekend cutting out the templates for some of these so I can start making them. It will be interesting to see if it comes out according to my calculations with the designs I've created.

Wow, impressive designing. You have a lot time into those already.

I see the ferris wheels!!! Great work!

What program do you use to assist your designing?

Love your designs!!!

Wow you are very creative!!! Wonderful'. I too love the ferris wheels! I can see them going too!!

Those are great, I like all of them, very creative.

eq7.........

Your designs are awesome!

I see all the images you saw. Very good designs.

Very interesting! You have great talent and patience to do this designing!

you are going to be a very busy woman...but I imagine you've done this before. Beautiful designs. I think I like the blazing mirrors the best...so rare to see oranges & yellows to that extent and I love orange.

You have mastered this program!!! Awesome designs:thumbup:

I like them all. The one with the oranges really speaks to me though. Very nice job on all of them.

I love all of your designs and they each look like a lot of work to me. I will look forward to seeing your finished quilts. You are very talented.

I can see the ferris wheels moving as well. Your designs are all stupendous!

Wonderful designs , can't wait to see how they turn out!

OMG These are amazing. I can see the Ferris wheels and the mirrors, not so much the birds. However, that second quilt is stupendous. I can't wait to see your finished products. I wish I lived closer to you. I have ideas but don't know how to design. Thanks for sharing.

All the ladies at yesterdays GD Dye-ing and Sew day wanted to see those designs and they all pretty much seemed to favor #1 Ferris Wheel Wonderment the most, however one lady liked the the Blazing Windows the most, and another liked the Wind Beneath My Wings.

very unique and orginal,patterns I don't remember seeing before

And yet again you leave me speechless.

I can see them all but my favorites are: Ferriswheel, Wind beneath my wings & Snowflakes & stars. The movements implied are really captured.

The designs are so intricate. Beautiful work.

first they are all great.
When I first looked at Blazing Mirrors my eyes crossed,lol . Went back to look at it again and I love it. First glance its the lighter squares that pop out then I can see the vertical movement. Amazing. I can see it done in handdyes or maybe batiks. And since orange is supposedly the "color" this season that is a perfect canvas.

I like all the designs, but I like the 3rd the most. I can see it in blues and gold.

They are just terrific, great job and thank you for sharing
Have a Blessed day

I think you have done a great job creating. Just wondering if you have more fun creating the quilt design or piecing it?

I'll be watching for your fininsed quilts, the images you've shown are great. I'm still using EQ5 - not sure if I should upgrade...

WOW! Looks like a lot of creative juices going in the right direction. like it!

I like Blazing Mirrors! Reminds me of a Bargello with road blocks!!!!

WOW! Can't wait to see the actual tops!!! The ferris wheels are definitely there and definitely spinning:) Enjoyed your names for these and descriptions. Enjoy turning them into quilts.

very creative like them all

I love them all but #1 and #3 are my favorites. Do you sell your designs?

Beautiful quilts - you certainly have been busy.

What awesome work. THey are optical illusions to me

I love that 4th one!
