    Default Need help with getting design from paper to pc

    Hi, I recently designed using the old method of paper and pencil a rectangle block pattern that differs in size as ieach block goes into the center of the quilt. I have both EQ5 and Quilt Wizard but do not have enough experience using the software. I want to be able to put my directions on Craftsy, but am stuck at how to plot out the design in full showing the pieces in the order they go and the final big pattern . All help appreciated

    Laura

    Someone may post step by step how to do what you want but you still have to know the basics of the software to know what the steps are referring to. There are great tutorials at EQ website that can teach you step by step how to use EQ. Also many quilt blogs have EQ tutorials. There are videos on you tube too.

    EQ7 has a variable block size layout option. I don't know if EQ5 has it.
