2014 is almost upon us! Last year at this time I posted about Quilting Resolutions. The focus of that post was using EQ to help you finish up UFOs that may be laying around your sewing room. You could have quilt tops that need borders, or you completed a block of the month for 2013 and now you have no idea what to do with all those finished blocks! This post shows you how to use photos of those sewn elements to design with in EQ7.
Maybe your goal for 2014 is a bit more broad and you’d just like to use your EQ7 more. We’ve got plenty of resources to help you learn!
Click here to check out the Lessons section on Do You EQ. You’ll find free lessons on a wide variety of topics.
You can still access all the sew along lessons for the EQ7 Summer Drawing Series and the BlockBase Sew Along here on the blog too.
And don’t forget about our YouTube channel where you can see the software in action!
If organization is at the top of your resolutions list, check out this post by Sandi Walton of Piecemeal Quilts. She has a great way to keep track of all EQ7 designs!
Wishing you all a very happy 2014!

Hello! My quilty resolutions include writing more professional patterns, and finishing up my lengthy list of UFO’s. Here’s a link to my last pattern of the year, Tropical Twist Table Runner, designed in EQ7. https://www.etsy.com/listing/174165218/tropical-twist-table-runner-pattern-20?ref=shop_home_active
Have a super day!

My most important quilty resolution is to be one of the first people to purchase the Mac version.

I’ve participated in a few round robins in the past, I used this photo/border method in each one, it really helps with a decision of what to do with your round!

I didn’t mention round robins, but the photo method is great for that too! Saves you the time of drafting/drawing the previous rounds and still gives you the ability to try out your own design ideas.
