This sort of makes me want to drop some cash on EQ7.............
I'd try the graph paper first. EQ is not that easy to draw a complex block like this. I'd blow up a picture to the size you want the whole thing to be and then use graph paper to draw out the design. I'd even use a light box to get the dimensions or to draw it straight onto the graph paper for the first pass. Then I'd redesign the whole thing to get the dimensions as pieces that could be cut. I'm not good at odd size pieces....8ths instead of quarters or 16ths.
