Repligator
6 has just released its yearly upgrade. Did you know that Repligator 5
was named the Best Graphic Shareware for 1999 and was a Microsoft shareware pick
of the week last October and that Repligator 6 is even better? I added Repligator
a couple of years ago to our line because it is a wonderful tool for the innovative
quilters looking for an excellent inspiration source. This edition of Repligator
brings NEW, VERY quilterly special effects and the options to add graduated background
colors to most of the other special effects -- a must have for the quilter who
likes color study. Take a look at the revised review and at the Repligator  .
FYI: If you are a previous owner of Repligator, upgrade for only $10 or
purchase your first copy! I am very excited about SymmeToy,
it is the tessellation program that I promised in my last newsletter. It is very
easy to use, produces some fantastic designs, and is very reasonably priced. Anyone
who enjoys tessellations will want to check out the demo. SymmeToy has 8 free
trial runs, so to help you maximize each session, I have written a quick demo
tutorial that is included on the SymmeToy
Review page. FYI: Speaking of tessellation, for those of
you who had trouble accessing my How to Create Tessellations
Using Your Quilt or Graphic Software in the March Newsletter because
of the extra frames, I have revised the Tessellation article into 3 different
formats and tried to clear up the ambiguous wording that was confusing some of
you. Check out the article again and select the format that works best for you.
This last month I had several questions about our Bubble Jet
Set line, so I wrote a new FAQ about additional
ways that the Bubble Jet Set 2000 and Bubble Jet Set Rinse can be used
by quilters. One of the hints is to use BJS 2000 to stop the bleeding in retail
fabrics and trims. We also have put together several BJS
bundle packages with even better pricing. UNTIL
NEXT TIME - May all your time Computer Quilting
be a Joy, filled with right brain escape, and result in that much sought
after finished Fabric Quilt, if not at least a very nifty Virtual Quilt
that you send to me to display in the Virtual Quilt Gallery!
