Planning an apple core quilt
The sizzix apple core die has arrived this morning (amazingly fast delivery as I ordered it yesterday afternoon and it was free delivery! Awesome!) so I want to get on with planning my quilt. I like to plan all my quilts with graph paper before I start so I have a picture in my mind. Getting hexagon graph paper was pretty easy using google but I am struggling to find an apple core layout that I can use to plan it. I have EQ5 but rarely use it as I prefer to draw things out by hand, do you think it would have an apple core layout? I find it very confusing to use but will give it a go if it's likely to have the layout!
Hope someone can help!

i tried but couldn't find an apple core block in the eq library. i did find a really good youtube tutorial showing how to create one. it is not in english but if you turn the sound off and just follow along it shows every step on the screen.i hope this helps.
i have the go die and am an inexperienced eq user as well and think it will be a good project to try.

If you are looking for hexagon quilt, you do the following
Select Quilt
Select New Quilt
One Patch Quilt.
It is very primitive on EQ5 and so is the Bargello design. They have probably improved it on new versions/ My friend has bought from Paper Pieces and was very happy with how fast they shipped.
