Re: Electric Quilt 6? Worth it??

I'm going to tag my question on here, I've been wondering about asking for this as a birthday and/or christmas present, but I'm not sure how far it's capabilities go.

What is the range of stuff you can use to design a block, I mean, can you draw absolutely anything, but also snap to a grid? I'm thinking stuff like Pam Bono does, where the blocks often don't fit on a regular grid and aren't just half and quarter triangles, plus rectangles and squares.

What about designing something like a mariner's compass, I've recently been playing with a lot of designs that use circles and need to be able to mark angles around them, or divide an existing angle.

Sorry if these questions are a bit dumb, but I've no familiarity with any quilting software at all, so I've not idea whether it's a case of durrgh, of course they are in, or no, you need a blah blah blah to do that.

Cheers
Anne
