I have tried Quilt Assistant. I found it to be a bit difficult to navigate and much prefer my old Quilt Pro or EQ. I haven't updated my EQ for many many years now and find that I do well enough without either of them. Oh of course there are times that I want to design something unique and will go back to my old Quilt Pro for that. I still keep Quilt Assistant on my computer just in case something comes up that needs something a bit newer than my Quilt Pro can handle.
