Questions & Answers

A few pictures can tell me how many blocks an entire quilt may look like, if I choose to only duplicate two. ?

use quick keys (Ctrl + Set block) to create a quilt layout to compare the blocks you will see.

Do you know if it is compatible with Bernina?

A quilted fabric can not be used with it as it is not connected to your sewing machine. There are many blocks you can mix and match, provided you choose. I hope you find something to correspond with.

A variety of other books are available through Amazon such as "lessons for beginners" and "block library books". This will allow you to start with EQ8. ?

I do believe that it is definitely true. It is easiest to take classes at On Point Quilter if you purchase all the books and purchase them through them. You can find her on Facebook and EQ8 websites.

Are these downloads and CD's the are this a download or CD?

Once you have downloaded the code, you'll see this on EQ's website. The program can be downloaded on two systems at the same time. Computers are generally compatible, whether a mac or a pc. On my desktop as well as on my laptop, I have it.

I'm sure that it's neither good nor easy to install as it won't even install
3/5

easily. In fact, as an engineering, I am a computer literate person. There is no possibility of installing this software. This would be my first time mucking around in the Windows registry, so I don't feel like it would solve the problem. When it came to the actual quilt program, there were no issues at all, which is somewhat disappointing at all because 1) it was too expensive and 2) it felt like I wasn't playing with something that I truly valued.
UPDATE: In an install that fails, the program does not gracefully clear up afterward, therefore a session with regedit is needed to complete the process. It turns out that EQ8 used a file format called "EBR" associated with Adobe Photoshop (which I do not own or have installed) on my computer, causing the installation to fail. The solution was simple: reset all files to their default settings, clean up ALL EQ8 HKEY cycles and restart it two times (second thought for luck). Here are all the files I want to add as extensions for my settings. "Use a Mac" STUDENTS IES U. S. U. S. Playing two days in a row and ending up holding three stars gives me enjoyment from having the chance of getting play time. You should really see the fantastic software in action. Additionally, there are extensive blogs, tutorials, and tips & FAQs. You can quickly import fabrics using information available on the ElectricQulit website. You can either print out files (or obtain photos of material taken at quilt shows) from manufacturer's websites. Sewing a quilt in person for a reasonable fee is an advantage, especially if you are confined to online ordering only and cannot come in to a quilt store. Using a quilt from the libraries of blocks makes building them so much more fun. In order to create more modern quilts, I usually use some type of textile composition other than traditional blocks; however, EQ8 might not work for me. The simplest, smartest way for me to fit all my love for strips around me. Because of EQ8's print and export functions, I must still layout my blocks ahead of time for measuring and construction so that they can be used to duplicate in EQ8. As opposed to skipping the spreadsheet step, I'm hoping to get straight from pen and paper. You can still draw paper sketches, though. I don't see it happening at EQ8. Using spreadsheets with measurements, blocks, assembly techniques and piecing is just one aspect of the quilt layout. There is also instructions I do personally that I will give from that are outside of EQ8, so my flow will reflect that. > pens. paper- I believe you have added a link. You'll want to know how much spreadsheets have to offer. > The EQ8 level was used for color auditioning. > & Excel Spreadsheets & Charts. Documents in Word. It most likely depends on how close you come to the EQ8 parameters and the expected usage. The installation experience was good, so I'm sure that you'll find that the instructions are easily created and helpful.

This is why the download license failed
3/5

The product said it has already been used when I attempted to download it. The item I received for sale was used.

It was a great program! A long time I wished I had the Electric Quilt design program, and I'm glad I did it ll be delighted I finally made the purchase! I believe this is very professional looking and would consider giving this as a gift
5/5

A user manual and a code for downloading a program straight from the Electric Quilt site also accompany this order. I got to set up everything without any difficulty. Besides that, they let you have the program installed on two PCs at once, which lets you move your copies often as needed. Internet access will be required, however, as your computer will periodically check your copy of the program as legitimate. It isn't overly complicated, but it does take a minute or two to figure out. I found the manual very useful, and the home page features links to videos that can be watched. Almost a year ago, I purchased the EQ8 Lessons book. Its contents have really sped up my learning curve. Please visit Electric Quilt's website for additional information on the fabric palette offer. You will get a free fabric palette and a paid palette. I cannot speak highly of this purchase as a whole.

It wouldn't make sense to upgrade the Electric Quilt 8, but 7 is an upgrade that isn't going to harm you
3/5

Over the years, I have loved using Electric Quilt 4, Electric Quilt 8 and In Electric Quilt 7, helping me out whenever I needed, from finding a place to locate things, to searching for things, to helping with the GUI itself. There is no need to buy a hard copy manual any further when purchasing any previous release. Keyboard shortcuts which did not work before are no longer working. For the most part, the user interface has reverted to an analogue format, there is no grid resizing option anymore, but it seems less laborious to change dimensions when drawing blocks. It may not fix the bug they created back when I used Electric Quilt, even though the product does not have the feature to delete a line after you have colored one from a block drawing. Do not purchase this product. In order to redraw the block, you only have one option: re redraw the block. As a result of how long I've been able to avoid them, I don't think I'll try any more electric quilts this year.

Dream about the day you make a quilt
5/5

Love EQ8. A lot of hard work has been put in so I can design one quilt from scratch after using the workbooks. Within the past week, I've designed multiple types of quilts. My favorite thing about EQ8 is that I can photograph and import my fabric and use that fabric to display in blocks or quilt designs. When one works through the workbook, though, one learns a few strange things about the commands. In my opinion, even though a fabric is necessary in a particular quilt or two, it seems that these specifications are correctly calculated even with a fairly rough estimate. Despite finding it quite easy, I have worked on computers for years and know what you need to know about PowerPoint or other software for drawing. I think this will be an enjoyable process. You may run into some difficulty if you do not read or understand.
