I have an ElectricQuilt5 that I've had for ages and really never got into using. I hate wasting money, but just can't get my heart into this one. Any experience with getting motivated or can you talk me into shipping it to you? :)

Oops, like everything, we are determined to give it a go and life gets in the way and we never do.

I bought Editor Lite V6 from Bernina, never had a lesson as a couple of months later the business was sold and now it cannot be used with Windows 10 so it looks at me and says "Howzit"!!

I think sometimes we are so motivated that we want to do it all and then time passes and we lose interest. I thought of purchasing EQ a long time ago but never did. As for the movtivation......let me know when you find it, I think there are a lot of us burned out who need it found again!!! Prayers you and your family are doing well in the New Year!!!!

Thanks! We are well, a little worn from wear but well.

So glad to hear that you are doing well. Last year was a rough year for you all. THANK YOU again for the EQ. I will share sometime what I am working on...after I get the customers caught up some.

Until I read below I didn't know what it was-lol-I have fabric bought for some quilts I want to make. I'm working on completing my quilt list, for my children, grands, before I die. If other projects keep getting in my way, I can't die for a long-long time!!!-lol

It is a wonderful program, I have used it for years. You can print any size block and the templates with seam allowance. Unfortunately I also have version 5, but not compatible on windows 10. I used to sit and design quilts just for fun with all the fabric samples in the program. On the website there are many tutorials to learn.

I know nothing about them my dear or I would try to be of some help. I'm simply an " old fashion quilter" and have had no experience with these. I do understand there is a 6 and 7 now.

I have no idea how many there are now. I just never got into it as I'm an old fashion quilter also.

I have 8 and have not used it yet. At least I did not spend a fortune on it. It was a super super sale. I just do not seem to have the time to learn anything new or my brain is full.

I can certainly understand that, Angie. I think maybe mine got so full that I've had to start dumping some non essentials to make room for today.

Even Nora at 5 years old notices how forgetful I am. The worst I missed Avery's Christmas play AFTER Ashley had told me about it just a couple days before. So, Avery's Christmas Party, Birthday parties at school and home, Nora's piano recital and dance recital were all written on my calendar, in HOPES I would remember to look at the calendar!

Well I haven't got a clue what a EQ5 is so I am off to find out but the shipping costs will be prohibitive if I say yes. Why haven't you got into using it?
