From the Bent Pieces Quilt Pattern

Bent Pieces Quilt

 

Bent Pieces looks very lively when bright nearly solid colors are used.


Eating In Quilt Table Runner Pattern

Eating In Quilt Table Runner Detail

Specialty thread was couched onto the binding using a narrow zigzag with monofilament thread. It is an easy detail that looks good.

From the BQ2 Quilt Pattern

 

Over & Under Quilt
Cheryl Forsythe used the 13.5” block in the 30 block size, 67.5 x 81, multiple lights for the blocks, two different framing fabrics and two borders. It is a great example of putting your own twist to our design.

BQ2 Quilt
Kay Smith made 4-18” blocks and created this stunning wall piece, 36” x 36”. This size is not in the pattern.

BQ2 Quilt
This quilt was made for M&S Textiles; a Australian fabric company that does many aboriginal prints that are so interesting. 6-13.5” blocks, 27” x 40.5”.  www.mstextiles.com
BQ2 Quilt
Heide Burger 13.5” block lap size 54” x 67.5”. Heide added a 2” finished outside border using the same background fabric to set off her blocks and found a great wavy line stripe to use as the binding.

BQ2 18” blocks, lap size 54” x 72”

 

Over & Under Quilt
I made this quilt as a gift for my cousin-isn’t this a great Christmas decorating idea?

BQ2 Christmas Quilt - Poinsettias in Red
BQ2 18” block 54" x 72"
BQ2 Quilt - Poinsettas in Green
BQ2 13 ½” block 54" x 67 ½"

This center square fabric is from Michael Miller Fabrics and is titled Scarlet Poinsettia. If you have thought about doing a Christmas quilt, BQ2 is a great pattern to use as it goes together so quickly. As you can see, the Poinsettia fabric looks good with either red or green to accent it.


BQ2 Quilt - Bev's Nurses
Using novelty prints in the 9” block size (6” center) makes a fun wall piece. Beverly Dorsey made this fun piece and added an outside border and slightly wider than usual striped binding.

BQ2 Quilt
9” blocks featuring flowers, multiple lights, 2 different frame colors which she also used as inner borders and 2 different borders complete this quilt by Cheryl Forsythe.

 

Check It Out Quilt

Cheryl Forsythe – Multiple darks and lights and one large print floral for the frames made quite a change to the pattern. She also added a large border using the same fabric as the frames.

 

From The Check It Out Quilt Pattern

Check It Out Quilt

M&S Textiles, www.mstextiles.com 
Check It Out quilt with aboriginal fabrics-look carefully and see the kangaroos jumping around. 4-16” blocks and no border make a 32” x 32” piece that makes a nice size for a table mat. It looks quite different from the black and white version!

 

From the Baby Grand Quilt Pattern

Baby Grand Quilt 
18” x 31” Langa Lapu specializes in these wonderful wax batik panels and batiks that are created through a sun process. This is a version of Baby Grand where I used a printed stripe rather than making my own. www.langalapu.co.za

Raffle Quilt using BQ quilt pattern

From the BQ Quilt Pattern
