​Watching the Clock - A New Years Eve Quilty Tutorial

Watching the Clock Block Drafted using EQ8

​

Growing up, our parents would let us stay up on New Year's eve.  We would closely watch the clock so we would know exactly when it was time to blow our paper horns and wish each other Happy New Year.​

A crazy New Years Eve party from the 70s.

If you are a clock watcher on New Year's eve, here is your chance to create your own clock using Electric Quilt 8. 

​This tutorial will share how to use PolyDraw and add some simple Applique shapes. 
​
PolyDraw has some unique features that often makes is the best option for working with blocks based on a circular grid.

I would love to see pictures of your New Year Clock quilt -- or do you have a different New Year design.  Feel free to share on the Learning EQ Facebook group.  I've set up a dedicated post.

Wanda Smith Hizer Here is a quilt I designed working with a border print and a stripe fabric. I actually made this one.

Edith Craig My class this month was Masters Harvest Time. Using many of the blocks we drafted for this month, I created a Harvest Time quilt of the scarecrow standing in a field of corn and wheat. There were so many fun blocks in this class and they could be put together in so many fun ways.

Jane Perri This is from the Quilt Layout class. Baby Blocks layout was used. This course got us to use layouts I had not tried before.

Jane Perri This one is also from the Quilt Layouts course. The layout used was Photo Patchwork. The help lesson taught us how to build a solids library to make it easier to find many fabrics of the same color family. This is extremely useful information.

Fran Heisey The Masters Harvest Time class was a lot of fun. I adapted the layout from Lesson 7 for a Christmas quilt.

Denise Mohler Wow, I learned a lot in November, since I am playing catch-up! The 1st Lesson was Landscapes

Denise Mohler My 2nd Lesson was Quilt Layouts

Denise Mohler My 3rd Lesson was Advanced Borders.

Denise Mohler My 4th Lesson was Modern Quilts 2

Denise Mohler And my 5th Lesson was Advanced Easy Draw

Julie Pedersen From the Masters Harvest Time class, I adapted the Give Thanks quilt. It was fun. It is addictive once I start playing with the class projects. Unfortunately, work and meals keep me from playing as much as I would like.

Debra Welch My November class was Mix and Match Kaleidoscopes. I had fun modifying a kaleidoscope block and playing with stripes!
