It is TERRIFIC if you have a pattern and want to alter the size. May take a little time to learn how to use the program but the instruction manuals are easy to follow. Lots of us use it and they are really great at answering questions. I just designed my first Bargello quilt on EQ5 and was delighted with the final results. You might find a used copy of EQ5 a little bit less expensive. GOOD LUCK !!
