Sherry's right. I was looking at V5 software on the internet while Sherry piped up on the Forum and indeed, the distinguishing feature of V6 software is the addition of CorelDraw Essentials... My previous posting won't help you.Originally posted by MontanaGramma

Sherry is correct - Bernina didn't add CorelDraw until Version 6.

Thanks, Ladies! Maybe it's time to take the v6 upgrade plunge...Comment

Mary Kay - it's definitely worth it, if for no other reason than CorelDraw comes with it!Comment

Thanks for the advice, Sarah! I am also hopeful that with this BOM project, I can learn to use my 730 for applique embroidery too. I am soooooooo excited about this BOM (even though I already had my list of 2012 quilt projects figured out). This is going to be fun!!!Originally posted by SarahVedeler

Me too! I just have to figure out whether I'm going to use my own colorway or one of the two provided. BTW, I really like the upgrade, but I skipped the last one, so there may be more differences in that case.Originally posted by mknavy90Thanks for the advice, Sarah!

So excited! My fabric arrived today and it is beautiful! Just waiting on Ricky's Stable stuff - oh, and my machine to get out of the shop. Have a new 830, it and I do not seem compatible. In the last 3 months it has spent more time in the shop than in my sewing room! The shop is sending it back to Bernina (luckily I only live about an hour from the main office in IL) but the wait is still about 2 weeks! Excited to get started!

A while ago I decided I wanted to do my Sedona Star in Dupioni Silk. I finally got the last of the yardage on Thursday. I wanted to share the color palette with you. I created a PDF document that has the fabric swatches which correspond to the FIZZ fabrics. I am going to start on Month 1 today. I can't wait!!!! I just printed out my templates and am ready to start. I will post my center as soon as I get it done.
Here are the first 3 dupioni colors.

Now I am ready to start with the YY, O, OO, F, R and piece my center star using Template 1. Then I am going to use these colors and sew Template 2. When I get this done. I will post a picture.Comment

Wow Carol! This is going to be absolutely georeous! I have never worked with silk, for fear it would be a "slippery" project. But then you are an excellent award winning quilter, so you probably have all of the pitfalls already solved. I will be looking forward to your updates in the BOM Show and Tell!
