Still ROFL! Well, I still have dreams (nightmares?) of designing my avatar quilt. The center is log-cabin blocks put together to make the Ohio Star, the photos are set in octagons, and then there are the lattice blocks. If I had had a program like EQ, I definitely would have used it. Old fashionioned is not necessarily good. Think out-houses, washing clothes by hand, etc. The only reason I don't have EQ now, is that I've gone Mac. I consider "Window's" old fashioned! LOL
So, it's up to you Bethreyn. It didn't kill me to do the math myself, and it was a good math refresher. But it made it a WHOLE lot more difficult.
