over 6,000 pre-drawn designs ready for you to use in your quilt
designs. Use these blocks as they are, or edit them to add your own
touch. Scan and import fabric - Scan your fabric or take a picture
of it, then import the image into EQ8. Use the scaling,
straightening and cropping tools to make sure your fabric looks as
accurate as possible. You can also add fabrics from the web! The

manufacturers! Calculate yardage - Get yardage estimates for your
quilt, including borders! You choose the appropriate fabric width
to get the most accurate requirements. Using fat quarters? No
