    I'm looking for foundation piecing software that offers old fashioned patterns. The blurb about Electric Quilt's Sew Precise #1 and 2 program says it has quite a few traditional blocks. Has anyone used software from that company? Would you recommend them? Or something else (that's relatively cheap)?

    Are these stand alone products?
    I like EQ as any block can be made into a PP block :D:D:D

    Yes, stand alone. It's just that they were so cheap - under $20 - relative to the cost of a complete EQ software that I thought there might be a Gotcha! involved. (Besides, I'm not used to thinking "computerized" when I think of quilting!)

    I have EQ7 and Sew Precise 1, 2 and 3. They are all great tools. I prefer EQ7 but can pull the SP pcks up there as well.
