Polygon Flowers

This is an example of what you can do with just the "Snap to Line" tool turned on in the Advanced Drawing Options (see the Help file about the Advanced Drawing features). I experimented with pentagons first.  Polygon shapes are a great help when it comes to designing a usable paper pieced foundation for flowers.  The shape helps you divide the design in units to make it easier to piece together.  The following designs are meant to inspire you to create your own flowers or experiment with all the new tool options given to us in EQ4!

A quilt layout using the Pentafleur #1 block. Rotating and flipping the block makes it look like three different flowers.
