Electric Quilt Symmetries

I know many of you Electric Quilt users know all about the Image/Symmetries tools, but I am now discovering them.

And oh what fun it is!

Upload an image to EQ7.  Edit it to the Image Worktable.  Click Image>Apply Symmetries>Circular (or Square).

Choose a petal shape and size and have fun!

Print templates to fussy cut and create beautiful kaleidoscope blocks.  Or print your new design onto fabric and create pillows, totes, and so much more. 

You can create so many wonderful projects with EQ7!

One Bloom of Hope

Columbia River…Looking Towards Canada

It is tick season here.  I am a tick magnet.  More so than my dog.  If we were keeping score on the number of tick bites received, I’d win.  I got my first tick of the season yesterday, while hiking the property and taking photos.

I’m telling you, so that if it is tick season where you live, then be sure to remember to wear your favorite repellent.  My older sister doesn’t like to smell like Eau de Bug Repellent, but one must make sacrifices in this world.

I wouldn’t mind if ticks and mosquitoes became extinct.  But I have a new friend, Mark Berkery, who loves all creatures great and small.  And he is the most fantastic photographer of those creatures.  Do yourself a favor…check out his blog, Nature’s Place.

You will gain a new perspective on small creatures.
