Lecture: EQ8 – Designing Quilts on the Computer

“Ain’t Technology Grand?” This program looks at the incredibly powerful quilt designing software, EQ8 by the Electric Quilt Co. The lecture explores the many things this software program can do, and the ways it can assist quilters (with minimal computer experience) to design quilts, quilt blocks, explore fabric and setting ideas, and create instructions for making original quilt designs.
