I have used a program called Quilt Pro for quite a number of years. "Everyone" kept telling me how Electric Quilt was so much better. I bought EQ. I have tried to learn that thing, but get very frustrated. I usually have no problems figuring out computer programs. I found myself going back to Quilt Pro more and more. It does have some limitations, but each upgrade fixes more and more.
EQ does have better graphics and a better handle on fabrics, but if you want the program for designing and drafting blocks and quilts, look into Quilt Pro. I think it's less money too.
Go to their website "www.quiltpro.com" and check it out.
