I am in love with this website!! The software looks so cool! I never fully appreciated a nice quilt until I made my first one…..using graph paper.
Love it! I’m working on a memory quilt for my daughter’s teachers right now…
will post a pic when done…

Beautiful quilts.The more I see the more I want to learn.
I have been enjoying all of your youcan sites. When I finish this semester at school I plan on catching up on all the patterns I have purchased. CANT WAIT!!
Keep up the good work..

This sofware would be sooo helpful. I just started quilting and love it but I am terrible at math and trying to take my imagined quilt and put it on paper so this sofware is perfect. I am such a visual person so the idea of being able to see how the quilt will look and tweaking it before going through all the work is very appealing to any quilter.

Congradulations to Vicki on her fantastic win of the machine. Thanks for opening this new quilting site and to all the people who contribute to it and for offering the EQ6 software in the drawing. I’m looking forward to some great, new quilting information.
I am so glad you ventured into quilting also. I love all of your sites.
Great site and love all the information available! Where I live the quilting resources are very limited …I can find inspiration, learing and SHOPPING right here! Thanks for a great site!

I love this new newsletter and website - so much interesting information! I have used EQ5 on a friend’s computer - it is amazing, so I am sure EQ6 is even more so! Keep up the good work! Now I’m off to find some fabric to make the “wish board” for two of the young girls in my church whom I have “adopted” to encourage. Thanks!

A new sewing machine wow that will be such fun. Congrads! I know EQ6 has got to be addictive I see so many great designs coming out of it. All of these new tools just amaze me, we live in wonderful times!

I updated my post on twitter to register for the EQ6

Does the software write instructions? I can design them, and put them together. I’m just hopeless on telling other people how to do it - LOL
I tweeted about the site dmcalgaro
I’m letting the world know about YCQT and Swak. Nice site for information.
Thanks for this tip . Needleturn applique doesn’t work for me . Ann
I am a beginner quilter, if you call it that and would love to have the EQ to make designing easier. I have done one quilt for my daughter and have a son and 3 grandchildren I want to make for. I love the website for you can quilt this and you can make this.
This site and the e-mails are just full of information and ideas that can be helpful to all quilters–new or experienced. There is always something new to learn and keep improving our skills. The EQ6 would certainly be a great addition to our “quilting tools”. It is nice to see the sharing notes from others. Margaret
Love theweb site. Lots of good information. Would really like the E6 Quilter program. My friend has one amd she brags about it allthe time
Your information on different supplies is great. Things I never would have thought to try I am going to buy and try. Thanks.
I’ve had so much fun looking at all the projects. The christmas stockings look fun. I hope that I can win the EQ software so I can can continue making lots of fun projects.

I am so excited about the Slice of Summer for gifts to my daughters and daughter-in-laws.
I love thiswebsite to jumpstart my creative juices! I love EQ5 for the same reason! I would LOVE toplay with the new EQ6 also! My only problem is that when I play at the computer…I loose track of time! More and more options and ideas just keep coming into reality and before I know it…I have been there for hours! At least I am not nibbling on food then! I will be twittering this today to encourage others to enter…or should I?(Haha) Great website offering great products—keep up the good work!
