I just got my very first electric quilt software, and am SEW excited. I know some people initially get really frustrated, so I figured I'd ask for advice here from those who are the "Electric Quilt Gurus". Where should I start? Do I read the book from front to back, watch the tutorials, or just jump in with both feet??

Trina :roll:

Just jump in. There is an on board tutorial which is great for when you get stuck. I learnt more from that system of tutorials than I did from the manual when I first started.

I would read the book, then do the tutorials. Also get as many of the design books that go with your edition as possible. Jumping in with both feet will only cause frustration!

This is a great program. I have EQ7 but your's may have in the help section tab...look for Lesson Plans and be sure to watch the video's
also read book...
