EQ Software
#2
I use it all the time and love it! Go through the lessons and then just play. I practice by looking at quilts and building the blocks in EQ, then experiment with different settings and color schemes. You can download additional fabrics from various fabric sites. I don't bother scanning in my own fabric, can always find something that's close enough.

I have owned it since Version 3, and it just keeps getting BETTER. Keep your book handy, do the lessons, join the EQBlog list. I use it to make paper piece patterns, color all my quilts, design layouts. I rarely buy any patterns, with EQ, I just do what I want to with an idea. Have fun!

I am an EQ lover too. I am just really learning how to use it even though I started with EQ5. I watched all the videos and just wasn't getting it. Rhonda's tutorials here on QB helped me a lot, but even though I could do some things, I wasn't confident. I bought the "EQ with me: Pieced Drawing" book at the IQF in Houston, Nov 2013. This book is really helping me with how to build blocks. I also, bought the "EQ with me: Quilt Design". As soon as I finish the Pieced Draw, I will start on Quilt Design. As you may have guessed, I am not the best at new computer programs, especially if they are like drawing programs. I'm only half way through the Pieced Draw and am drawing blocks much better than ever.

Same as qltgrose, I've had it since it was on floppy disc. It's the best quilting software you can buy. It's easy for beginners and advanced enough for professionals. I haven't used all the features of it.
