EQ6 Companion Book Page References

Posted 12-22-2010 by Sarah | Posted in: Uncategorized

As many of you already know, EQ6 companion books EQ6 Simplified (sold out), EQ6 Pieced Drawing, and EQ6 Appliqué Drawing are all excellent resources for your EQ7 program as well.But we received a GREAT question from Margery Haney about how to use the EQ6 companion books with your EQ7. Her question was: I am reading various materials designed for EQ6. Your site indicates that these materials are good for EQ7 also. However, they all refer to pages in the EQ6 manual. Is there someplace that shows the conversion to pages in EQ7? I am a first time user of EQ (any version) and am trying to learn the program. Good question. Most of the things in the Simplified book don’t have page number references… the page is accessible by looking it up in the User Manual Index in either book. So we’ve flipped through the books really to give you the new page numbers.

EQ Printable Canvas Creations by Tania Cardenas

Posted 12-20-2010 by Sarah | Posted in: Uncategorized

I’ve been talking with Tania recently about how pleased she is working with EQ Printables with her canvas creations. These works of art are so cute! Tania explains what she does and why she loves EQ Printables: I have always loved photography and graphic design as well as textiles, textures, and colors.  I had no idea that I could combine these things into one wonderful hobby until I found about about inkjet fabric.  I originally started out with some cheaper inkjet fabric that I picked up at a local craft store.  I didn’t think there would be much of a difference between this and the higher end products.  I immediately started having issues with my current inkjet fabrics.  The images were coming out dull and experiencing massive quality loss with even the first wash.  After hearing and reading so many fabulous things about EQ Printables, I decided to give them a

Becky Rhodes gives back with EQ

This quilt is amazing! We love it. Designed and made by Becky Rhodes, she used EQ6 to plan this awesome tie quilt for her son’s senior high school class to be auctioned for a fund raiser. Wow! Becky explains: I volunteered to design and make the quilt for my son’s senior high school class. It will be auctioned, with proceeds benefiting the school. As a Catholic high school, all the boys must wear ties and jackets every Friday for mass. At the end of their junior year, each of the 68 boys donated their favorite tie, which I had to design into the quilt. I bought EQ6 for this project and learned it quickly, so I could play around with the possibilities. I designed the paper pieced pattern, as well, on EQ6 – the jacket/shirt/tie blocks. The finished quilt is 106” square. I designed and pieced it. Emilie Dolan did

Best of Quilter's Newsletter Review

Posted 12-13-2010 by Sarah | Posted in: Uncategorized

Check out this Best of Quilters Newsletter review by Munaiba Khan on her SewJounal site. Munaiba writes:  In addition to all the quilts which are lovely to look at there are heaps of really useful articles. There’s a 13 part series on “Taking the Math Out” which includes just about every yardage chart you will ever need for everything from lone star quilts to hexagons, backings, borders and more.It includes articles on two colour binding, raw-edged appliqué, feathered stars, family history quilts, colour ideas from Kaffe Fassett, Roberta Horton and Liza Prior Lucy and the list goes on… The best thing about this CD – apart from it’s tiny price tag of $14.97 (plus postage) is that it’s stand alone software. While it is compatible with EQ6 and EQ7 you don’t need EQ at all to play with this. In fact if you’re wondering whether EQ is for you this might
