Consider making one or more of the blocks or rows for your own project. 

Mix and match. 

Go big and make a quilt.

Or go smaller and make a wallhanging, a pillow for your sofa, 

or a table placemats for one of your favorite seasons. 

Have you made a block or row yet from last week's free pattern PDFs? 

Post your photo(s) to the Flickr group HERE

My Idea

I have plans to make this wallhanging so I can use it 

when celebrating birthdays and more. 

I have EQ7 with EQStitch installed. 

I used 3 of Janeen's present blocks 

from her PJ6 file that I downloaded HERE.

I incorporated Bea's filler rows ideas from her site HERE. 

I selected the "ribbon quilt" blocks from the Block Library.

I added them in the borders of the wallhanging and recolored them

so the pink and blue ribbons appear to be winding around and behind the stars. 

I designed the wallhanging by selecting Custom Set under the Quilt Worktable tab.

I set the size for 24" x 36" on the layout tab at the bottom of the worktable.

I added block borders (3" size) in the Borders tab at the bottom of the worktable.

I set the present blocks as I wanted them, which meant that I resized them.

EQ will print the pieces the size I need for my project 

regardless of the size they were designed. 

How cool is that!

When it came to adding the words, I went to the Stitch worktable. 

I added the words then repositioned the letters. 

I added this stitching to the quilt. 

The letters are not as bright as I would like in this exported image, 

but once they are made into the actual quilted wallhanging, they will be the color I want. 

I hope you get some ideas from this short description I have presented to you. 

Have fun!
