I bought Quilt Design Wizard some years ago (2004?), and it was a great way for me to work on small quilt projects. For beginners this is a great tool to get started with, it helps you to become more comfortable with EQ quilting software and how it works and it help me with my computer skills, I then started with EQ5-6- 7- now I use EQ8, It’s a wonderful program to use, I’ve enjoyed using EQ design software and still use it today. Thank you EQ for all your work in creating this wonderful Quilting Software for us to use!!!!! I purchased this product about a week ago.

Even though I work full time, I have had time to ‘design’ about fourteen quilts I love this program! It has made it possible for me to create quilt patterns in very little time, allowing me to actually have the time to sew the quilt! And, for me playing with the designs and colors/fabrics is FUN. I might even like this better than actually sewing the quilt!I printed out the designs for a few of the quilts intended for my husband. He looked at them and really liked them. NOW not only is he talking about helping me to start making quilts, but he actually stopped at a quilt store on the way home from work and was looking at their fabric and talking to the sales ladies!!! I think your program has caused him to catch the quilting bug!

I was fearful of quilt designing software, having played with a few free online programs. I had felt so limited by the programs online, thinking I was not creative in the least. Quilt Design Wizard has unleashed the designer within me that I did not realize existed! I highly recommend this software to any quilter who is reluctant about buying a program for their computer. It is not only perfect for beginning designers like myself, but is also great for those who are not the most computer savvy.

Play hello neighbor free without download. It walks you through each step, making creation easy and almost foolproof. The price is also great compared to other programs out there. This is a great way to ease yourself in to quilt design via computer. I just wanted to let you know how much I am enjoying using my Quilt Wizard. When I bought the software, I kind of bought it just to have it, in case I would need it. Well I never thought I would need it this much.

I mostly do block quilting so this is ideal. But the other day, my aunt wanted a quilt, so I wanted to make her a special quilt. I bought the fabric and then came home and planned out my quilt on my software.

It made the quilt so much easier to sew. Quilt Wizard makes planning a quilt so much easier. Quilt Design Wizard is an excellent program. It makes you an instant quilt designer and it offers the perfect solution for playing with fabric colors and textures.Click on a button to see how shades of purple and green look together, or to visualize how changing a component’s color value affects the layout. You know what that means, don’t you? Less fabric waste.If you want a more powerful program go for Electric Quilt, a generic drawing program like Adobe Illustrator, or another quilt design software package.

If you want something easy to learn and use, at an excellent price, you can’t beat Quilt Design Wizard.” Read the full review.Quilting Guide for About.com. I just purchased Quilt Design Wizard as I am retired on a very limited budget and just prayed this software would help me with my quilting as I needed help in choosing colors and I could not afford the more expensive EQ. This software is wonderful. It does everything I wanted and more.

And the projects you add on your website are just delightful. Thank you so much for making this product and for making it so affordable for those of us who aren’t professional quilters and just need a little help.

With starting next week, I know some people are starting to wonder how to best go about designing their quilts, so allow me to be of assistance by sharing the pros and cons about these various quilt design tool options. FreeThe cheapest, easiest method of designing quilts is with a good ol’ pencil and paper that I know you’ve already got lying around. It’s great to jot down your ideas and draw out some rough sketches quickly without having to think about quilt math and accuracy.But that can also be the con – it’s hard to go to the next step of working out the quilt math using rough, not-to-scale drawings. Which is why the next option is your best bet for a free or low cost option. Free or tiny costUsing graph or grid paper is the best option if you’re going for the manual option, as it will help you draw your designs much more accurately.

It will also help you if you draw it to scale, where 1 square represents a certain amount of inches, ie. 1 square = 2″.

You can find plenty of printable options around the web, or pick up a cheap notebook next time you’re near a store that sells office supplies! I highly recommend 5mm, or five lines per inch paper.The main con of this method is that it can mean a lot of mental acrobatics working out the fabric requirements for larger projects beyond a few quilt blocks! But using this method is perfect for designing quilt blocks, as it easy to see the proportions of your block, and thus work out the quilt math for your block. It is also the method that I recommend and walk you through in.Free – $4.99/month or $39/yearI’ve previously shared about on here before, and it’s just kept on getting better with age!

The free version offers set block designs, the full fabric library, ability to upload 5 fabric prints from your stash, a full resolution image of your finished quilt design, and fabric calculations/yardage requirements. That is an amazing deal for free! Here’s Country Picnic, a quick quilt design I made up using mostly Pie Making Day by Brenda Ratliff. TIP: Use the 1″ border option to make a mock binding!And the downloaded PDF providing fabric cutting and yardage requirements!The Premium version offers the full block library, the ability to rotate your blocks, unlimited fabric print uploads, and so much more! You can pay $4.99 per month, or $39 a year (save over $20), and in fact there’s a special deal running at the moment, where you can when you have a play and create a quilt design.If you’re happy using the blocks available on Pattern Jam, this is definitely the best free option! But you do need to be able to interpret for yourself the fabric cutting measurements provided for each block and how to construct the block. And it could be that you would rather construct the block in a different method than the cutting measurements suggest, so that is something to remember when looking at the pattern.

IPad appA popular option is the for iPad. This isn’t something I’ve personally played around with, as I use a different software option, but uses it for all her designing, and she definitely knows what!I’ve had a look at it on the App store, and it does look very impressive Photograph your own stash, over 180 block templates, yardage calculator, and more. The cost varies depending on what country you’re in, but it’s under $20 for most countries, I believe. It is only available for iPads though, which would be a problem if you don’t have one!

Image credit: Quiltography Most expensiveThe premium of all premiums, retails at $189.99. This is the king of all quilt design options, as it includes all the options you need as a quilt designer. While the learning curve can be a little steep at first due to all the different things it can do, it is definitely worth pushing through, plus it’s available for both PC and Mac!It has an extensive block library already inbuilt, as well as a variety of fabrics, plus the ability to import your own fabrics, whether that’s by purchasing EQ’s downloadable stashes, scanning the fabric yourself, or importing JPGs that some manufacturers provide like. It can be used for standard quilt designs, foundation paper piecing designs (and templates), curves and applique, and more.

It will also provide the fabric yardage requirements for each fabric you use in your quilt! For example, here’s what the block I drew out on plain paper looks like in EQ7, with the quilt view and fabric yardage needed for the quilt.But it’s price tag is a big one, and it is definitely something to only consider if you want to really make a go of designing your own quilts.
