just got EQ5

I used the gift cert. my DH got me at the LQS yesterday to purchase EQ5. It is
so fun! I did 4 of the 6 lessons in the starter book. I also worked a little
on my Southwest quilt. I am not too happy with my latest row on it. So.... I
couldn't go to sleep until 4 am last night thinking about these two things.

The partial arrows row is the one in question. It seems too narrow or oriented
the wrong way or something (across rather than up and down). This row and it's
clone above the center will be the last.

Actually I like the arrows--just think it needs to be more symetrical by
adding a row of arrow above the cross too.

Kathy, I think that is what she meant by her last line
"This row and it's clone above the center will be the last."
But I agree, that would certainly balance it out. My
suggestion, Deb, would be to make the row and insert
it in its reserved place, audition it facing opposite way from
its clone, and then the same way, and then decide for
youself. I think you will like the results. (I do)

As far as EQ5 goes, don't try to swallow too much lessons
at one sitting, you'll choke on it!!! LOL When you get really
good at it, you can audition things like this dillema on the
screen before you invest time sewing.

I like it, Debra! But I wonder how it would look if you did half the row
facing as it is now and the other half a mirror image?

maybe if you separate it from the top row with a very narrow cream
strip? I actually like the design wall peeking through, so it might need
some quiet resting area for the eye...

Or, use the lighter orange instead of cream.

I also like the idea of the arrows pointing toward the middle of
the row.

Happy stitching,

The first thing to do is work through Getting Started. Then use the
Design Cookbook for further ideas. You may want to go to
patchworkplanet.com and sign up for info-eq (an e-mail resource).
There are also lots of ideas, suggestions and encouragement at
electricquilt.com.
Enjoy!

Mary

CArol,
Did you work through any of the exercises that come in the 2 books
(they should have come with the software : "Getting started" and
"Design Cookbook" )
