The contest is now over. Thank you to the more than 700 people who left comments congratulating Electric Quilt on their 25th anniversary.
The winner of the copy of Electric Quilt is Debbie St. Germain. We congratulate her and know she will love being able to design with Electric Quilt. Debbie has a blog herself called Woolen Sails.
Everyone here at Handi Quilter congratulates Electric Quilt on their 25th anniversary! We are equally pleased to be part of their celebration by hosting a contest where one Handi Quilter blog reader will win a copy of Electric Quilt 7 (EQ7) — their popular quilt design software.
Just imagine being able to use your computer to design and lay out a quilt — complete with images of the fabrics you’ll use. What’s more, you can then print out a detailed list of how much fabric you’ll need, fabric cutting instructions, templates, foundation-piecing patterns, and more! EQ7 has certainly revolutionized and simplified the quilt-design process.
To be part of the fun and hopefully be the lucky winner, all you need to do is make a comment on this blog post congratulating Electric Quilt on their momentous silver anniversary. The contest runs from October 10th at 9:00 AM eastern time through October 25th at 9:00 AM eastern time
You also have the opportunity to win Handi Quilter Batting Scissors and an HQ Light Strip Kit. You can see the light strip in use on an HQ Fusion below. The light strip can be cut to size, so it works on other quilting and sewing machines as well.You’ll need to hop over to the Electric Quilt blog by clicking here and add a comment to today’s blog post about the 25th anniversary contest.
Congratulations HQ on your silver anniversary. That is a remarkable feat.

Congratulations Electric Quilt on your silver anniversary
Yes, I have the EQ that needs up-dated. But now saving for the HQ machine.
Twenty five years of EQ….I must be getting old too! Seems like I have always been able to use EQ. So much better since us Mac users can use it natively too…just love it.
Congratulations on 25 years, we’ve come a long way baby (EQ7). Keep up the good work.

Congratulations on your anniversary!
Congratulations on your 25th anniversary
Happy Silver Anniversary, EQ! I started out with the original Electric Quilt, and it continues to be one of the best software products out there, all the way from interface quality to customer support. I’ve had so much fun and confidence-building from EQ, all the way up through EQ7. Designing and planning my quilts in EQ first has saved me a ton of time and money in every phase, such as knowing how much fabric to buy before cutting a single piece. Once upon a time, I even submitted a bug report and got a reply from Penny herself! That was totally cool, I have to say. Rock on, EQ.
If I should win EQ7, I’m giving it to my daughter, a newly minted quilter who has finished her first quilt and is raring to go. 🙂
Congratulations on 25 years of business.
Congratulations on your silver anniversary, Handi Quilter!
