    With all the graphics you've seen that I draw here, I still use my graph paper the most. It's the way I started and likely the way I'll end because it's very fast for me now.

    I have a large (much larger than average) tablet of graph paper,
    however I don't use it really, just on rare occasions will I pull it out
    to use.

    Most the time I just use my EQ7.

    I would be lost without my graph paper! I buy it by the 100 page pad- carry it with me in my work bag...always have it close by.

    Yes I have, several times. It came in handy when I was making "Pipe Dream". When I first bought that thick pad, I figured it would never get used up, but it is about half gone. Guess I've made a few things over the years that required the use of those little squares.

    I have been thinking about asking for EQ7 for Christmas but wonder if I am computer savvy enough for it. My graph paper and my coloured pencils are my best friends. I don't get frustrated with them--unless I break a point--and I never delete them by mistake. Plus, it may feel like doodling but I have come up with some of my best ideas 'just playing around'.

    I teach math and ran across a SUPER site with graph paper of all shapes and sizes....some of them, you didn't even know existed but can use! It's www.incompetech.com.....just play with it, you can print everything in your choice of color, and size each shape to fit your needs. I do use it to make graph paper for my students, but I use it more for quilting-y things!
