I *adore* EQ! When I bought my quilting machine, there was a brochure about EQ6 in with the paperwork (the lady I bought it from kept everything she got from the dealer). I asked her about it and she said it was one of the best resources she purchased.
I barely scratch the surface of what the software can do, but man, do I love it! Even my daughter and husband enjoy designing in it! (Hubby is my creative assistant- he's got an incredible eye for color & pattern)
