Good Afternoon ...
.... thank you. It sure is fine to get all of these responses; I am sure they will all help in my quest. Take care ... Jim Hughes ************************************* "Roberta Zollner" wrote in message ... I tried EQ....whatever..... some years ago and it didn't thrill me. No doubt all the quilt software has improved dramatically since then, but this is not how I make quilts. You might want to check with your wife, or find a trial program so she can see if this will be really helpful or just a clever toy to play with for a few weeks to make you feel good. My loved one is eager to provide me with software, he has entered nerdvana, but really the only software I want is woven out of cotton! Roberta in D "Jim Hughes" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ... Good Morning ... I sure would appreciate your advice regarding quilting software. My wife is now 'into' quilting, and I would like to purchase quilting software to assist in her efforts. Your advice, as quilters, will sure make my task easier, as you have been down that road, and have used quilting software ... be them beginner, or advanced, programs. Thank you for your consideration & time ... Jim Hughes |

Good Afternoon ...
.... fantastic; thank you for the help. .... one question and many answers ! I will pursue all of the leads. Thank you. Jim Hughes ******************************** "Zoey's mom" wrote in message ink.net... I like using EQ5. It is easy to use and not expensive. Also, there are other programs that plug into it that you can get for about 20.00-30.00 each, like Sew Precise. My granddaughter who is 10 has used my EQ5 to design her own quilt.

Using EQ5 saves me many hours when designing a quilt. If your wife
doesn't like to use the computer you could master the program and do the actual hands on work to run the program while she sits by and tells you where to put the lines. This could become a real togetherness thing. Glad to hear you are supporting her in her new hobby. Susan On Thu, 20 Jan 2005 17:52:00 GMT, "Jim Hughes" wrote: Good Morning ...

I have Quilt Pro 3. I really like being able to try out colors; it has
saved me from some costly goof-ups. Sometimes what seems to be okay in a single block just doesn't work in a whole quilt. Sometimes just switching the red and the blue (for example) can make a world of difference. I also like being able to print out the foundations for foundation paper piecing. Someday (maybe soon) I plan to upgrade to the latest version of Quilt Pro. I'd probably try EQ5, but I can upgrade my QP for much less money.
