Thanks for letting me know about my mistake- I fixed it.

Sometimes, I don't see very well. My sister was driving me in our little one street town, and I saw a sign that said "Quilting Business Sale". I was so excited that our new town had a quilt shop. But the next time I saw the sign, it actually said "Quitting Business Sale". I was so disappointed!

LOL..Judy. I've done that exact thing before. Since that space will soon be vacant, maybe you need to open your own quilt store there!

EQ means Electric Quilt. It is a software program for your computer, and it allows you to design your own blocks/quilts, edit images for quilts, and includes a block library, fabric library, thread library, etc. Go to electricquilt.com and you can see the program details.

Did you every find out what EQ was? If not, it is a program for your computer that helps you design your own quilts, I use my to help with my stash, so that I can use my stash up so I can buy more material. HA HA

Judy, thanks for the tut on how to use EQ, I bought EQ7 when it came out last year, and I hadn't got around to figuring it out very well, but with your tut I was able to draw up a quilt layout and get the fabric requirements. Thanks, I look forward to more lessons from you.

I have added another tutorial, this one is for EQ5. Am still working on one for 6 & 7. This one teaches how to import fabrics into your program, so you can design with them. Please let me know if there are any problems with this tute.
