This app makes you pay before you can try or do anything at all. After taking the chance on the $2.99 purchase, I was actually able to try out the app, and it really does not let you do what you want. Blocks can’t be smaller than 5 inches, max quilt size is 8x8 blocks, and you have to choose from very few pre designed blocks, none of which are what I want. No basic blocks that you can use to create your blocks. Doesn’t even have HST, which is all I’m looking for. Very disappointed.

To unlock all features, it is a small one time fee of like $2.99. It was a small risk so I took it and I am glad I did! This is the best app I’ve found for the price point. I’m not sure why other people are expecting it to be comparable to $200 quilt design software? You can design your own blocks, design your own quilt using many pre-added blocks or your custom blocks. You can make quilts regular or on point, change the block size, adjust the width and height (up to 12 blocks each direction), add different sashing options, and change the color (solid or patterned). It gives you visuals for blocks used and how to make those blocks. It is limited to squares and HSTs but there’s a lot you can do with that. I wish it had flying geese, snowballed corners, the ability to change the colors in quilts of your custom blocks, and the ability to duplicate and edit blocks and quilts. With that being said, it is definitely worth $2.99 and I have really enjoyed using it.

I originally had an issue with the app not recognizing my in-app purchase across devices. I emailed the developer and got a helpful response on how to fix this. This app is very helpful for planning quilts and testing out different designs. I do have a request for future updates: the ability to take a picture of a fabric to somehow use that as a swatch instead of solid colors? Not sure how possible that would be but it’s worth suggesting 😄

Waste of Money!! Don’t bother downloading

TOTAL SCAM!!! The app is free to download but makes you pay before you can build your own blocks. After purchasing I was able to build a super simple black with some half square triangles, but I should have just stuff to hand drawing on graph paper because you can’t use your own blocks in the quilts! What’s even the point of being able to create your own blocks if you can’t insert them into a quilt?!? I wish I could get my time and money back.
