Pros & Cons
Pros
There is a slight learning curve but youtube tutorials will get you going. There is also a lessons book for beginners that can be purchased separately. I highly recommend the lessons for beginners to go along with it.
When you buy eq8, it comes with 6,779 copyright-free blocks included in the block library, organized by type for browsing but you can also search by keyword. I was able to take pictures of my grandmother t-shirts to help with the layout for a t-shirt ... Read More

Highlights
Quality
I am very happy designing my quilts with this product
I am still learning but am very pleased with this product
But it does not give instructions on how to put the quilt top together nor does it include binding with the material estimates
I bought the beginner book but the instructions with the software were useful too
Price
Same great program for a much better price
The index could be more userfriendly but the spiral binding alone is worth the price
Packaging/appearance
I went on youtube and watched a ton of the videos before i ordered and this program lived up to the hipe
Competitiveness
The new iteration of the mac operating system mohave will not work with 32bit software
