I think you'll find that anyne who uses the EQ6 software will recommend it, the only negative comments so far have been it's activation process.
The software itself is quite wonderful, it's easy to use and does a fantastic job. I upgraded from version 5.
For those of you that already use EQ6, there’s a
lesson on drawing scrollwork with the appliqué tool. This is also a great way to draw custom feathers for quilting, then you can print them onto sticky template paper, and stitch right through them onto your quilt, then remove the paper.
