I have no business affiliation with this company but have the highest regard for the program. Proqdesigner lets you see your quilt and design exactly what you want on it before actually starting to quilt it. This program can be used by any quilter but is especially wonderful for a long arm quilter. Ellen Munnich has just started posting videos on various subjects quilting related and is a wonderful teacher.
