    Krisb, Lisa, Such teeny little boxes. I love the cascading color.

    so many beautiful quilts! i am hoping to be awake early enough tomorrow to get debbie's dq mailed.
    i have a question-- does anyone have the eq7? i just bought it, it arrived today, and i'm dieing to know how to install and use it! it was on sale for $130, down from $190. i've heard others rave about it, so took a chance! so, anyone have any words of advice for me?

    I received my goodies yesterday afternoon. What a way to start my weekend!! AKDaffyodil was my partner. I got some flower seeds and a cute magnet. The magnet was reading 100 degrees when I pulled it out of the mailbox/pkg.
    Thanks for everything AKDaffyodil!!!

    I have it and love it! I started with EQ5 and have upgraded as upgrades have come along. I'm not an expert by any means, but their system support is terrific. I would recomment really studying the manual and just giving it a try...I create most of my paper pieced patterns in EQ and it's great to play with colors of things and different designs...I'm sure some on here are pros at all the designing as well...good luck and have fun!!!

    AKDaffyodil, I love the simplicity of your colors. The design is fabulous, too.
    Kris, what can I say. What a knock out!
    Great work everyone!

    Kris - all those little cubes of color are simply amazing! And you even made a fancy back too! Great work!

    AKDaffyodil - love your spinning pinwheel blocks in the bold black and white contrast! Goldsberry I'm confused...a magnet read 100 degrees?

    Nancia - if you can spare the time it is well worth is to look at Rhonda's Electric Quilt classes here on the QB. She wrote a whole line up of tutorials on the EQ quilt design program:
    http://www.quiltingboard.com/tutorials-f10/pdf-files-all-eq-classes-rhonda-t175169.html
    I myself really need to do those too! Rhonda is an Quilting Hero to have done all these for us!

    Thanks, everyone. It is paper pieced. The back includes the leftovers from the colored border on the front. DH said it was too wide, so it got narrowers and the extra ended up on the back.

    And since when do we listen to our DH's when it comes to quilting???? Unless, of course, they are telling us how wonderful our quilts are!

    Sorry this is late, but I did promise to post a pic of Juanita's (Juanita Bean) dq from me. Actually. I'm posting both.....Mine is the one with the grey center and Juanita's has the green center. Were we thinking alike or what?
