    Is there anywhere on line where you can do a layout of a quilt to get the correct sizes of the strips and blocks?
    Or is there any software that will allow you to create your own layout for a quilt?
    I am making a panel quilt and need to figure what size strips and blocks including the sizes to go around the quilt.

    Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

    There's EQ7 that will let you make your own quilt designs. I have a site that you can print off free graph paper. That's the way I use to do it before EQ.

    So EQ7 will allow you to make your own layout for the design of the quilt? Or is it just for the quilting design after you have put the quilt top together?

    Thanks for your help.

    Can anyone tell me where I can find real cute Easter Bunnies to applique? I have searched a million coloring books and don't like the looks of the ones that are in the color books. Thanks for any help you can give me.

    Here's the EQ home page...I've got the EQ5 and haven't used it much, but I have designed a quilt and then gotten yardage info from the design...it calculates it for you.

    EQ7 will allow you to design the whole quilt from start to finish. Its a really cool program! You can add even overlay of different types of quilting to see how you like it.
