The upgrade special price for EQ from 5 to 7 is $150! I got my response back and bought an "upgrade" for 6 instead on this board.
I don't know if I will use it enough to warrant the higher price. Version 6 is more user friendly, in my opinion, than 5.
I can use the help with the fabric choices and combination of blocks that the software provides. I also like the EQ Simplified books for lessons.
