Design tools

Clever tools make designing easy

  • Add or delete rows and columns at the click of a button.
  • Define type and colour(s) of each square individually.
  • Switch entire rows or columns from individual squares to combined lines of sashing. Define the sashing width and colorize them collectively.
  • Add as many borders you like - you could even make an entire quilt just out of borders.
  • Add predefined blocks (4-patch, 9-patch, 16-patch, etc.) as highlights or as timesavers to spare yourself the repetitive work of cloning design areas.

Save your custom colours in a palette.

Choose your colours in advance and use them everywhere. Of course you can add to or delete from the palette at any time. You could even predefine your colour story in a colour tool and type in the colors by hex or rgb name.

Preview

Step back and have a look.

Enjoy a preview of your work at any time, scaled to your screen - so you can work on a part of a large piece and still get a glimpse of what the whole thing will look like - even from your phone or tablet.

No need to finish in one sitting

Work on your creation at your own pace. When you need a break, just download a file that contains all the data, and when you re-upload it, you can pick up your work where you left off.

Calculate fabrics

Get an estimate of how much fabric is needed.

PatchNPlay gives you the freedom to create AND frees you from the chore of calculating fabric requirements. No matter how many colours your quilt contains, you get an estimate how much you need of each fabric that goes into your design. You can even choose from several fabric widths.
