1. Set up the block. Choose the grid and the finished size, or start from a classic block like a Sawtooth Star.
2. Pick a piece. Tap a piece, then tap a square on the block. It lands in your main fabric and background. Tap it again to turn it.
3. Choose fabrics. The preview shows your piece in the two fabrics. Tap Main fabric or Background, then pick a color, a print in that color, or a photo of real fabric. Swap trades the two. Tap any patch on the block to repaint it with the lit one. Name a fabric in the box below the palette.
4. Lay out the quilt. Switch to Quilt for rows, columns, sashing, cornerstones and borders. On point sets the blocks as diamonds.
5. Cut with confidence. Pieces to cut lists every piece by fabric and how much to buy. Print makes a one-page sheet with a cutting plan for each fabric. Copy list puts the text on your clipboard.
6. Keep your work. Save names the block and Open brings it back, quilt layout and all.
