Do you EQ?


I only know one person who owns EQ and isn't afraid to use it, and that's my friend "two-n-Dianne" that you've heard about a few times before. She's the designer of our guild mystery quilt, which she did on EQ!

Well, EQ is publishing version 7 soon and if you have a blog yourself, you could win your very own copy as well as one for a giveaway. Hurray, you won't have to make a thing! Check out this post on doyouEQ for info.

I've never owned or used EQ but I would LOVE to. I have lots of designs in my head, but from what I've heard EQ can really help out with illustrations, fabric quantities, uploading actual fabric swatches and more. I would really dig this program and it would look so fab on my new lime green laptop (I'm guessing...since I've never seen it in action...EQ, that is).

I like the idea of this, but since I'm no good at doing patterns, I'm not sure I'd utilize this. I also get weirded out with the swatches. I guess I don't like the idea of a computer generated quilt? But I can really see the benefits of using software like this too. I think I need to see the software in person!

I have EQ6 and I will be upgrading to EQ7...You would love it. Try it and you will then wonder how you did without it!
