Yeah, FontForge is absolutely fantastic, rivals any commercial font editing applications. Btw, Krita is nice, evolving slowly, but it's nice.
There's also Gogh : http://www.goghproject.com/screens.html
come along just fine, very nice. And there's one application that most people don't know, VIPS (with NIP2 frontend)

Then there's SK1, that already opens coreldraw files
http://sk1project.org/
and if you need patterns, i use a lot Ghost Diagrams, and Arabeske,

there's also Passepartout, another DTP app
