A New Quilt Beginning . . .
Planning a new quilt is almost the most fun part of the process! I am making a quilt for my best friend, Emily, who is obsessed with navy blue. Obsessed.
So I went in search of a line of fabric which was heavy on the navy blue. And I found it. Then after a very frustrating stretch of time with the EQ5 Program (dude, it's so ridiculously UN-intuitive) I came up with this plan...which may still shift just a bit when piecing time comes.
That outer fabric is navy with white dots, not solid navy as it looks, but will change if I can find white with navy dots to buy on the cheap. Fabric is from the Modern Meadow line by Joel Dewberry.Quilt pattern is my own.

This is beautiful.
This is so pretty! I don't do quilting, but I bet it's so much easier to plan out when you can use a computer to do it. I can't wait to see the final quilt come together!

The quilt is darling - I've always liked navy with greens or golds.
You are right - EQ5 can be an unintuitive pain, which is why I didn't reinstall it after my hard drive crashed almost two years ago (and I can't find my registration key, ahem). Though it is nice to have those yardage calculations.
Have fun with the quilting!
LOVE your design! Can't wait to see it all come together.
