Hi Friends,
It's been so exciting to see the 1000's (literally) of folks that have downloaded our free Housewares Quilt Pattern! We hope that you will enjoy it, and make lots & lots of quilts, with lots & lots of Lizzy Dish fabric. The block that makes up the quilt is one large block, used 4 times. I thought it would be fun to play around on EQ6 and look at some of the variations that could be created playing around the with arrangement. Some of the blocks are mirror images, and some are rotated. What do you think? Do you have a favorite? Leave us a comment, telling us which one you like (the quilts are numbered 1 through 6 starting from the top left through the bottom right), and on Sunday we will have a drawing for 2 Lizzy Dish fat quarters!
I think I like the bottom left corner best, I'm into symmetry! Haha, but they are all fabulous & the fabric is to die for! I can't wait to get some of it & play with it myself (I've got immaginary placemats dancing in my head!)

I like the more random looking ones - so bottom right!

I love the quilt on the bottom right-with less of the dark fabric. Would love to make cloth napkins with the fat quarters!

I like the randomness of #6 ;)

2 and 6 are my favorites, just because of where the dark fabric lands.. and I also like the plate fabric in the middle :)

Number two is my favorite!

Bottom left corner - I like how the red print flows thru the quilt, adding a little pop of color

Top left and bottom right are my favourites! Thanks for having a give-away of some Lizzy Dish!!

I like #3 because of the way the "circle" fabrics touch at their corners and keep the eye moving.
Posted by: Cynthia H. | January 15, 2009 at 12:19 PM
I think I like #5. I am not sure why but it catches my eye.
Posted by: Tudy | January 15, 2009 at 12:40 PM
I love #1, but i'm totally anal and love symetry. amazing work!
Posted by: Barbara Myltschenko | January 15, 2009 at 12:50 PM
I like the 5th block. the colors appear brighter
Posted by: Helen Costner | January 15, 2009 at 12:59 PM
#3 is my favourite, I love the symmetry in this one.
Posted by: Anita | January 15, 2009 at 01:05 PM
I love the middle one on the left! Can't wait to get some of these fabrics! Placemats and a tablerunner are just waiting to be made!
Posted by: Susan | January 15, 2009 at 01:12 PM
I like #3 (I think) -left hand side bottom. The design is symetrical and pleasing and quieting.
Posted by: Ellyn Wood | January 15, 2009 at 01:45 PM
#1 really catches my eye :)
Posted by: Kelli | January 15, 2009 at 01:48 PM
Number3 number3. It looks scrappy, I like it.
Posted by: Erika | January 15, 2009 at 03:02 PM
I like the bottom right one the best. I like the extra bit of orange.
Posted by: Billie Kretzschmar | January 15, 2009 at 03:12 PM
I don't have a preference. They all look very similar - guess I don't have that artistic leaning... When I first looked, I thought they were all exactly the same, and had to actually go back and look again to realize they were variations.

#6 is my favorite.
Posted by: Sue G | January 15, 2009 at 07:20 PM
I like the arrangement of #6 best. The dark green? pieces seem more spaced.
Posted by: Narelle | January 15, 2009 at 09:47 PM
Number 5! It has a scrappy look, and I like the way the colors are arranged.

Hi! I like #3 the best (middle left), and downloaded the Housewares pattern. Love the fabric!
Posted by: Karen | January 15, 2009 at 11:33 PM
I really like 3 :-)
Posted by: Christy K | January 16, 2009 at 12:35 AM
I like all of them, but #3 the best.
Posted by: Michele | January 16, 2009 at 05:37 AM
#5, bottom left is my favorite.
All are nice tho, amazing how much difference we can get from just making a few changes to the layout isnt it?
Great fabric, and tyvm for the pattern!

Hi - #6 (bottom right) is my favorite. I really like the randomness that comes when the big brown blocks appear to be randomly placed. It's been a lot of fun to watch the development of the fabric and the pattern over time!
Posted by: Kristin | January 16, 2009 at 08:46 AM
Bottom left is my fav. I love the border though in the dot. That is fantastic.
Posted by: Nanette | January 16, 2009 at 03:19 PM
By squinting at the pictures, I found the dark brown squares kind of over powered the rest, and it was hard to see much difference between the 6 quilts. But, with the squinting method, I liked number 6 best...it had the fewest brown blocks, so the other fabs had more of a chance to get seen.

How can one decide?? They are all beautiful!! Lx
Posted by: Lee-Anne Gilbert | January 16, 2009 at 10:20 PM
I like the 1st on the polka dot and red fabric fabric seems to pop in that quilt.
Posted by: Lisa | January 17, 2009 at 12:57 PM
#3 is my my pick
Posted by: rebecca | January 17, 2009 at 03:23 PM
#6 keeps catching my eye! LOVE these fabrics!
Posted by: Kellie | January 17, 2009 at 07:59 PM
Hi Cherri
Number 5 is the one that catches my eye, not sure why! I just downloaded the pattern too - thankyou.
Blessings

I like the balanced look of #3 the best.
Posted by: Heidi | January 18, 2009 at 08:09 PM
They all look great. The bottom right looks really nice. What a great giveaway.
