EQ7 allows you to use the blocks in the library (both pieced or applique--and you can buy additional pre-drawn block CD's, plus there are monthly free downloads), draw your own (both pieced or applique), design the quilt layout and sample colors/fabrics. It's not cheap, but pretty much does it all (you can even preview quilting motifs). If you get it, I suggest you go ahead (they are on sale for about 20-25% off every few months--sign up for their emails and blog) the step by step lesson books on doing it all on the program--much easier to use as a reference than the technical manual.
