I just started using EQ and looking forward to using it. Looks like many of you have discovered some exciting possibilities with it. I'm especially interested in creating abstract quilts, based on photos. Anyone had experience with this?

me too ..once on ..i'm gone! oh ..hungry hubby? oh well ..i'm busy in my eq :))

this is great idea tressa ..i love intricate blocks and have felt from my first forays into quilting that those big open centers of some blocks, just begged a small complexity or perfecr fussy cut image. i hope you post a pic when you have you quilt pieced

I joined a birthday block exchange recently. As a group we decided on a block but each of us have different color ways. Our B-day block is the saw tooth star block. With this block we can put anything in the middle of the block or just do the 6.5 center of the block, this is also left up to the blocks owner, whether she wants the whole block or just the center made. I used EQ to try out different blocks and the different color ways each gal wants for her block.

Also used my EQ to figure out my alternate block and the color way for my B-day blocks. Then played with borders. I can use up so much time just playing in this program when I do open it.

Thanks for the compliment Rogue I appreciate it. I am a visual learner and so I see things in pictures. I had heard a lot of people saying they had EQ but hadn't the least idea how to use it. So I wrote these. I didn't get through all of EQ7 and some day I should go back and finish out the rest of the bells and whistles. I still use my EQ5 primarily. I like the way it works and I am used to it.  I am always available if anyone has any questions or needs  help. my email is patchesbyr@yahoo.com  I have a lot of stuff I need to get added to my website. I don't get to it as often as I should. I have been using my EQ to create BOMs using my shortcut methods for a FB group I belong to. I also started my own group on FB called Rhonda's Shortcuts. I am trying to get projects and quilt blocks posted for people and tutorials of course LOL   I use my EQ for all of it.  I love love love my EQ!!  I was thinking last night I want to set up a quilt (using my shortcuts of course) and play with adding blocks in hte borders around the quilt. I've never done much with borders except for one Ebook I did. I go into EQ and it will be a long time before I surface LOL

Hello everyone thank you for letting me join your group. I do have the EQ software but have not used in in a very long time I would need to start back at the beginning. So I will be looking for a lot of direction on how to use the software.

Took an EQ7 class today given at our new local quilt shop "Primitive Gatherings". The class instructor was Sheila Williams. Great class and I learned a lot.

All the activity on here. It has reminded me of the books I purchased and still have not used. And I love the EQ site.
