One Patch Charm Quilts
This new quilt layout option comes in 14 different styles. (Kite, Tumbler, Custom and Hexagon pictured at right.) Choose to make a One Patch Quilt, choose your patch style, and then tell EQ5 what size to make the finished patches. There are even two customizable patch styles, with which you can make your own unique patches each time.

Embroidery Library
A library of embroidery designs available as digitisable patterns from Great Notions Company. EQ5 lets you try out these designs in planning your quilt. Set these embroidery designs on your quilt just as you would a stencil.

Import Photographs For Memory Quilts

Make a bitmap of your favourite picture and import the full picture at any size. Place it on your quilt just like you would a block.

Enhanced Custom Quilt Tools
Copy and paste blocks, motifs, or stencils quickly on custom set quilts. Nudge or snap them into position. Now the same idea of "snap to" points on the Block Worktable has been translated to make your blocks size or position themselves quickly on the Quilt Worktable for custom set quilts

Strip Quilts
With EQ5 you now have two choices of Strip quilts; horizontal and vertical. Just choose your strip quilt type and set the strip styles to be any number of the 11 different styles available. Bargello quilts have never been this easy.

Rotate fabrics Move your fabrics around with the "fussy cut" tool to place them just as you would like. But if you need more than that, rotate the fabric to create amazing designs. Lonestars have never been this much fun.

palette that you've already coloured with.
