http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35750 --- Comment #2 from Gordon Cooper <HughGordonT(a)gmail.com> --- No, it has not worked for me at all, regardless of Wine version. I have the previous versions of EQ, EQ5 and EQ6 working OK on Wine, but EQ7 loads OK, will activate OK, but then crashes.

I think perhaps you misunderstood Mr. Cooper, or missed his typo correction in Comment #3. This is not a regression in Wine. Previous versions of the Electric Quilt application (EQ5 and EQ6) work with both Wine 1.6 and Wine 1.7, but the most recent version of the application (EQ7) does not work with any version of Wine. Thus, I don't think a regression test would reveal anything. My wife is also a quilter, and this application is the only thing preventing me from completely expunging Windows from my home. Electric Quilt's licensing/activation/phoning home policies and implementations irritate me even more than Microsoft, but unfortunately, their product does not appear to have any real competition. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

In comment 1 it says:

I take it activation works with 1.6, but not starting the application? Does this have a public download/demo available? I found http://electricquilt.com/download/, but it's down. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

According to Mr. Cooper's original bug report and comment 4, yes: EQ7's phone-home activation process succeeds with either Wine 1.6 or 1.7, but the main application crashes during startup. I have not been able to locate a (legal/licensed) trial or demo of this application. I have not attempted to find a cracked/"warez" copy of the program, but assuming such exists, it may be useful for troubleshooting (since the problem(s) doesn't appear to be connected to the license activation process). I have not yet attempted to replicate these results myself, because (1) EQ's licensing/activation rules make it impossible to test under Wine without (at least temporarily) disabling the application on Windows, and (2) this is the only application for which I am interested in using Wine at present, so when I saw Mr. Gordon's report that it's broken, I didn't bother setting up a Wine environment. I will attempt to free up a license to use for testing (on Ubuntu AMD64 or Fedora x86_64) in the next week or two. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

The website is working now, but the product is almost 200 dollars. Without OP responding I would say this is abandoned bug. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
