I have had EQ5 for a long time but thinking about upgrading to EQ6. Could anybody tell me if there is enough changes and improvements in the new one to justify upgrading. Also, will all my saved projects and sketchbooks transfer into the new program? I would hate to have to re-create them all.

Thanks for all your opinions. Wink

I find that I use my Eq6 more than I did the Eq5! I recommend the upgrade. I found it easier to use and it does have more tools!

Quiltmouse, yes, you can open EQ5 projects(or earlier versions) with EQ6 but you cannot go backwards.
Meaning, you can NOT open a project with (for example) EQ5 that you created in EQ6. TeXas

You gals talked me into it Wink. I ordered EQ6. Now I'll be impatient until I get it. I've been reading your comments about the lessons and I am anxious to get started.

Thanks,

Colleen

Every time I find an Eq5 file saved on my computer I convert it to Eq6! That gives me double but I don't care. I love the Eq6!

Colleen, I'm glad you're getting it! You'll love it!

Betty,
I stopped by yesterday and the lady said she was surprised it wasn't in so she called. It appears that the wholesaler was waiting for her to confirm the order Eek Now we will see!!! I will also be taking a class when it comes in. So it is still a waiting game!! I will just have to quilt to keep myself busy!!! Wendy
