Gets the job done, but could be improved
Overall this app lets me do what I need. Which is create a design totally from scratch using my fabric swatch images and then provide block cnt and yardage at the end. It’s just a bit clunky in its execution.
Updates I would love to see -
Minor items:
- Allow renaming of saved quilt patterns. Currently if I want to rename something I have to save it again with the new name and then manually delete the old version.
- Allow renaming/editing of existing color selections. Currently I have to delete and start over if I mess that up.
Major items:
- I honestly think this is a glitch, but the custom pattern section will not let me select additional pictures from my existing photo library. It did it once, but won’t allow me to add more now, so I’m just stuck with only the images I selected that first time. This means I have to use the camera function there for any new patterns which is frustrating if I don’t have the swatch or pattern set on hand to photograph again.
- Allow uploaded images to be used when setting a color scheme for the block templates. Currently I can only create a RGB/HSB based color scheme for use with the template blocks. The upload functionality already exists in the custom pattern section, so why can’t I set an uploaded image as a color in the color scheme section for template blocks? This would allow me to create designs using template blocks that are actually colored as my existing fabric swatches.

Hello! You can actually select additional photos by going to your iPhone settings app -> select the Quiltler app and then select photos. You can then either allow all photos or update the specifically selected photos. I hope this helps. Thank you for your review! As for editing and updating there is a more comprehensive version of Quiltler. You can download it here. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/quiltler-2-quilting-app/id1464393624
