Wedge topper-What's on my design wall

I pieced this wedge topper yesterday after I mocked it up in EQ7. I am slowly learning my way around in EQ and pretty happy with how this one came out, of course it still needs it circle appliqued in the center before I quilt it. 
 And this morning I worked up this runner using the Disappearing nine patch idea. The Batik fat quarters I recently purchased at a sale, $7 for 10 of them!  


Then this afternoon I started working on another wedge round topper. Do I seem a little obsessed with round toppers lately!!  Guess it is something new to try :-)  This one will be round when I am done as there is no way I can quilt it on my long arm and bind all the points! Tomorrow I will finish the piecing. My pile of 'to be quilted' is growing and someday soon I will have to start on that.

  5. Thanks for your sweet note. Thank goodness my seams were all short...but they were those tiny stitches you are supposed to use with paper piecing...UGH! I have now gone up to 2.0. It is easier to see when ripping. Had no clue as to what EQ7 is, so I goggled it and WOW!!! What a fabulous program. You must love working with it and learning so many new approaches. Your red, white, and green design is such a festive eye catcher, and the one you are making is so pretty. I cannot wait to see it when you finish.

  6. Amazing piecing! I also design patterns, but use Adobe Illlustrator an Adobe Photoshop. One of these days I would like to buy EQ too! Must be much faster than the other programs. Your designs are very sophisticated.
