Whether you are a quilter or a quilt historian this collection of quilt blocks and the means to replicate them is priceless. This collection of blocks and their instructions make it easy for any quilter to design their own heirloom quilt. Worth every penny.

Very easy to use format. I have been working on a reproduction quilt, however, working from only pictures and templates was difficult and cumbersome. Using BlockBase has made all the difference. I can customize my blocks and choosing the best method- paper-peicing or rotary cutting or templates- is a breeze. A great reference and so many options! Just what I was looking for.

I bought eq7 and was told by the manufacturer that this was a fantastic add on and that the blocks were not in eq. I bought the CD and perviewed the blocks. I must say that every block that is not a duplicate of the ones in eq are unusable and foundation patterns cannot be printed of them. For me this was a waste of money and I will be selling my copy on eBay.
