I don't have any quilt software (yet) :cry: . I draw up my plans in PowerPoint and color the shapes with my fabric that I've uploaded photos of. They look better from the camera than when I scan them. It's not exact with colors, but does give me an idea of what I want. What it does lack is the ability to calculate yardage. I have to do that manually (using Excel or referring to a book I bought long ago called "Taking the math out of patchwork quilting").

All of the EQ programs cost more than I could afford to spend now. But I did check out that Quilt Wizard someone recommended. I am seriously considering trying that. I might also try out that Quilt Composer that was recommended. But usually, the software with free trials lack the ability to do exactly what I want.
