After a less than lackluster day, there was a package waiting for me at home. Whenever I buy stuff off eBay or someone send me something I seem to instantly forget about it until it arrives in my mail box.

It was a copy of EQ5!

Someone---who wishes to remain anonymous---caught my post about whether getting EQ was worth the high cost. She had EQ5 and was just going to donate it to a library since she never really used it, but after seeing I was interested in getting it decided to give it to me if I wanted. Didn't even want a penny for it! That was really generous of her!

Currently trying to get it to download onto my computer as we speak :)

OMG! <--- Wish I could make that larger! That is huge for you! Cuddle it like it is your only child. Give it a kiss from Aunt Tonnie. That kind of charity NEVER happens to me. Usually if someone is donating fabric, it is their old polyester liesure suits or incomplete patterns. Once, someone sent me a box of underware, telling me with as crafty as I am, surely I could find a use for the elastic waist-bands. Ewww and Ick!

That's fabulous! I too am in search for EQ5, as I had it once and have since lost the CDs for it. Too many moves in a short span and now all I can find are the manuals. Again, Congratulations, put it to work and show us your projects!

Didn't EQ5 have the serial number on the back of one of the manuals? Or was that EQ6.
If you could "borrow" someone else's EQ5 CD, you could install it using that number, and still be kosher. And if you registered it with EQ by mailing in the postcard, they would also have the number on file.
Worth checking out. ;-)

Have fun with your new toy. It's addictive.

You might contact Electric Quilt and explain that you lost the CD. They might replace it if you give them the serial numbers on the manuals. It's possible, too, that there'd be a charge for it. Can't hurt to ask.
