You should try out the different options/choices and use the toolkit that best suits 
your needs. 
Currently you have a choice of WX.NET, System.Windows.Forms, Qt#, Gtk#, SWT (from the 
#Develop
folks) and maybe others that I am not aware of.  I don't know what your requirements 
are but, each
of these is in various stages of development has strengths and weaknesses and you 
should evaluate
them and determine which approach you like best ;)  That is the great thing about Free 
Systems ...
you get a multitude of choices!  

As far as the IDE I don't know which IDE you are looking to use or what.  #Develop 
currently has a
forms designer for System.Windows.Forms and I imagine they'll at least include a forms 
designer
for the SWT port.  Gtk# has Glade and Qt# has Qt/Designer.  I am not aware of any GUI 
designer for
WX, but I'd guess they have something or are working on it.  Lastly, I am not sure if 
the eclipse
plugin for C# has any forms designer.

Cheers,

Adam
