Dogtooth Violet Block

Dogtooth violets remind me of springtime when I was a kid. The violets dotted the woodland floor with their happy yellow faces. So, I was very pleased to see the EQ8 spotlight block for April is the Dogtooth Violet block.

Even though, the violets were typically yellow, but I decided to add a bit of pink to liven them up. Bright pink, yellow, white and green are the cheery spring colors I chose.

I decided to use one of the preset quilt layouts in EQ8, which featured an on-point medallion. When I was setting the blocks, I hit a key by accident that changed my design idea. It was a very happy accident.

Here is the design for April – Dogtooth Delight. There are only three blocks in various sizes and colors. Now, to create instructions for it!
