I have 4, 5, 7. I have used it now and then and really need to get serious. It has to be something that you enjoy. I remember looking at an old quilt and taking a pic and got into EQ and drew the pattern and made it....that was so neat.
There are some books with each EQ by Fran Gonzales. EQ Simplified. It's like being in class. The lesson are so easy. Just do one at a time, it's amazing. There are several books to teach you drawing etc and they are really simple to follow. I hate going to class so these books work for me.
There was a sale on last month, I think at half price and I picked up a couple more stand alone programs. Even tho I love the patterns and books, It's good to have the programs to do things I see, or to design...we have to have everything anyway, don't we?
