I have EQ7 and love it. I have gone on line for a fabric I like that our LQS has and put it in EQ7 and then I can design a quilt any kind of quilt. I am now doing a log cabin with some fabric and am going to go to my LQS and get the material I need. It is a fantastic tool. Once you get the hang of it - it is wonderful. It is not hard to use and there are times I have a brain freeze but I love it.
