Somedays you just need to take a break, sit back and design a new quilt. So, I decided to pull out a Fall Leaves block from the Blocks 2 Quilt series and start designing in EQ8. Falling Leaves quilt layout is a new twist on a past block.
I wanted to keep things simple so that it would be easy for everyone to make.
To add visual interest, I mirrored every other block. The entire process was really simple. After I created my layout on the worktable, I was able to place and adjust the block using the flip tool.
