Quilt Bee is a quilt block designer and quilt planner made for the way quilters actually work. Build a block Pick a piece β€” square, half triangle, hourglass, flying geese, two bars or curve β€” and tap a square on the block. Tap again to turn it. Start from a classic block like a Sawtooth Star, Ohio Star, Churn Dash or Drunkard's Path, or draw your own on a 2Γ—2 to 8Γ—8 grid. Choose fabrics Two fabrics are always ready: Main fabric and Background. Pick a color, a print in that color β€” tonal, floral, calico, dot, gingham, stripe or batik, drawn at true scale β€” or a photo of the real fabric from your stash. Tap any patch to repaint it. Lay out the quilt Rows and columns, sashing with cornerstones, up to three borders, and an on-point setting for diamonds. See the whole quilt as you change it. Cut with confidence Pieces to cut lists every piece by fabric with the cut sizes quilters use β€” plus β…ž for half-square triangles, plus 1ΒΌ for quarter-squares and geese β€” and how much of each fabric to buy, with binding and backing. Print makes a PDF with the block, the quilt and a cutting plan for each fabric, ready to print, save or send. Made for the sewing table Big type, large buttons, no accounts and no sign-in. Everything you make stays on your device. Free and Plus Your first 3 quilts are free, in baby and lap sizes up to 60", with every feature. A quilt counts when you save it under a new name or print it. Quilt Bee Plus is unlimited quilts and printing in every size, baby to king, for one purchase you own forever.
