Yes. Today is Nation Dog Day! To honor the man and woman’s best friend we wanted to share this EQ7 designed quilt from user Jean Rhubin. Enjoy!
I should lead with the shocking truth… I don’t quilt. I can hear you gasping, “What!?” When I starting working here in 2006 I had never sewn a thing. My first 2 weeks were spent learning the EQ program and as one of the graphic designers here at EQ, I had fun playing in the program. But I was intimidated by the quilt-making process. I got over it and have since made one quilt. I now dabble in sewing little things for my daughters. Halloween costumes, play make-up bags and easy blankets are as far as I've ventured.
This is the first Halloween costume I made for my oldest daughter.

Here on the blog, I’ll be gathering and sharing tutorials, tips, and articles from our favorite EQ gurus in the Gurus Columns. Our users’ EQ projects are often published in magazines so when I find them, I‘ll share those with you here on the blog as well. I’ll also be telling you about what’s going on here at EQ, sales, contest, and new products. Stay tuned!

Prize Winning Quilt from Serena Vrnak

We always love hearing from EQ users who have won with their EQ designed quilts. We are always impressed with what you are able to do with EQ7 and then amazed at how you bring a virtual quilt to life with stunning execution. It’s never a surprise to us that so many of you are recognized for your designs and talent. This time, we congratulate Serena Vrnak on her win in the Master Division Large Pieced category at the Dallas, Texas quilt show. Serena writes: “This may be the wrong place to acknowledge how pleased I am with EQ7 but, it helped me win 3rd place in the Master Division Large Pieced category in the Dallas, Tx. quilt show. I first acquired EQ7 a year ago to take me from graph paper. I was truly surprised with how many designs I could produce with just one block. I am a fan of EQ7.” ~ Serena Vrnak,
