Learn to Create Daffodil Quilt Blocks to Celebrate the Start of Spring

Are you dreaming of spring? One way of celebrating the changing seasons is with a new quilt. I can see it now -- a bright quilt with flowers in cheery yellows and greens.

And if you are new to Electric Quilt 8 or just confused with some of those block drafting tools in Electric Quilt 8, you are definitely in the right place to figure out how to use them.

In this free live 90 minute webinar, you will go step by step through the process of using Electric Quilt 8 to create a number of daffodil blocks along with a couple of quilts for highlighting your blocks. You will see how to:

Draft two daffodil pieced blocks using EasyDraw drafting tools.
Draft two daffodil applique motifs using Applique drafting tools.
Create two different quilt layouts for your daffodil blocks.

By the end of this webinar you will have all the information to know how to design your own daffodil quilt.

Bonus: You will also receive a guidebook that you will be able to use as reference both during and after the webinar.

Tech Know Quilters February Showcase

One thing I hear over and over again is -- I didn't know you could do "that" using Electric Quilt 8. One thing that holds us back from truly using Electric Quilt 8 is just not understanding that this versatile software can help you create any type of quilt. I think you will be inspired by the quilts created by Tech Know Quilter members using Electric Quilt 8.

Tech Know Quilters is a membership program focused on mastery of Electric Quilt 8. We have members at all stages of their Electric Quilt journey.

Joan Calarco I absolutely loved this month's course (More Optical Illusions). This is my creation using the techniques I learned this month. I plan on making this quilt in the future although I'm not sure which configuration I will use.

Joan Calarco Can't decide!

Joan Calarco Same block, different twists.

Pauline Dickerson I brought in the image to trace. Created each block that made up the whole block. It was a challenge but I learned so much.

Lynne Maramieri This is a quilt I made from the lessons taken from the Working with Pre-Cuts class.

Terry McCaskey 1. Color Play This is the first fabric/color/stripe manipulation in our class.

Terry McCaskey Santa Fe Sawtooth

Terry McCaskey 3. Firedance: I loved learning about the arc tool...and ran amok. It was just fun to play if not an elegantly executed set to flying geese.

Julie Pedersen This is my adaptation of a quilt that I saw on FB. I created it in EQ8 and made it for one of the teachers I work with. She has an amazing giving heart and she and her daughter love it.

Julie Pedersen EQ8 version

Gwen Welch this was from January class but I had fun with these two.

Gwen Welch One more.

Gwen Welch This one I did using some tracing and landscape concepts form last month...getting better at the tracing though it is not perfect by any stretch.

Gwen Welch First version (without the bakground)

Kristy Goodin Soard A friend was making the Wensleydale quilt designed by Jen Kingwell, and I suggested making a big block for the back. She was intrigued but needed help. I created the pattern for her in EQ8 and printed the PDF patterns for her to add to her pattern. The trick was getting the proportions correct after rotating the rectangular block.

Edith Craig My class for February was Working with Precuts. I adapted the class project and designed this quilt which would use fat quarters and fat eighths for the colors plus a background fabric. This class gave me a better understanding of economically using precuts.

Lynne Maramieri My interpretation of Kari's farm.

Zdenka Nemethová I enjoyed Optical Illusions lessons in February ❤

Holly Wilson BOM Christmas Baltimore Album. Now have the bug to design one myself.

Holly Wilson Elf Block designed by Holly.

Brigitte Lee I never thought I would have so much fun with landscape! My forest background is a Kaufman panel Happy Hilltop.

Wilna DuToit So amazing to use this technique! □

Michelle Raid Tuller After Medallion Centers Lesson 5, I was playing around and created this design. The blues to go with the snow and cold weather we are still having in Michigan.

Gloria Worthen Jacobs This was an enjoyable exercise!

Margo Reppert Modern Quilts 2 Wonky Log Cabin

Melissa Grote Easy Draw Serendipity gives you many choices to play with!

Lorraine McMahon I had a panel with six dragons on it that I wanted to use for Project Linus quilts so I searched for it online and imported, cropped and resized using info from earlier lessons. I opted to use simple four patch blocks as alternate blocks and HST's and square in a square for the border as the Tile Square border is only 3.5". Thanks for giving me the skills to make use of these dragons that I can now make into three quilts.

Katherine Martin My Impossible Triangle Quilt.

Billie Stephens Someone in another group on Facebook took a picture of a floor tile in a Mexican restaurant and posted it as an inspiration for a block. This is close, but not exact.

Shawn Spjut I designed this based on the Log Cabin block in your book Kari Schell. The center fabric is from a scanned pic of fabric I recently purchased for another project.
