    I have no idea about this. I have seen reference to EQ5 and EQ7. I think it may be a design programme. Am I right? Is it hard to use? And is it worth getting? Any help would be appreciated.

    Lots of videos on youtube how to use it.

    I have used it since EQ3. It's a great design program for quilting.

    I am not into one upmanship, LOL. But I have had it since it was just plain old EQ. It has really come a long way. I love it.

    Remember when it was dos based? And came on the floppy discs? I still have the old program on my work computer. It still designs quilts!

    Yep, I actually gave my first one away. You could not even register online. Long time ago. It was a struggle to use sometimes.

    I love mine. I can design a quilt pattern and it gives me templates and instructions how to cut it out. It also tells me how much fabric I need. I love it.
