I have the EQ6 installed on my computer. I attempted to follow the book on learning to use it and simply got frustrated. Does anyone know if classes are offered anywhere to learn this? I'm in the Seattle area.

Hi,
I too had trouble with the book on EQ6. There are some classes offered online at "Quilt University." Before I registered for that I ordered a book that I really like. It is EQ6 Simplified, An Easy Learning Guide by Fran Iverson Gonzalea. I find it much easier to follow. I think I ordered it from Amazon. Just a note: I have a pretty good history of "figuring out" software, but did find this book much easier. |
Thank you.. I will see if I can find that book.

Thanks for the question--I've felt really stupid. Been trying to figure this out since Christmas and can't get past Lesson 4!! I use a laptop and sometimes the instructions don't work for me. ORPiecemaker: I will get the book you suggested.
Thanks to both of you!! |

I still have to go back sometimes and review. Have you watched you videos that are part of the EQ6 program?

I got my EQ6 Simplified from the EQ company when I ordered my software.

I'm learning as I go. I don't know about how you learn, but I am VERY visual. The videos are helpful and so is tech support. I do not have the time it would take to go through each of the lessons right now and I needed to use it to figure out the Dear Jane software.
Mabye your local library has a copy of the books you're looking for if the videos are not meeting your needs. There are several companion books to EQ6 based on what you are most interested in doing: pieced drawing, applique, block books, 6 simplified, etc. |
Got my EQ 6 yesterday!!!! Also bought the book Simplified; both for 20% off; both with shipping totaled $149.50.

don't give up...I had to go back over and over lessons 1-5 many times. there's still a lot I don't understand but it does get easier.
