More Quilt Design Capabilities at MyWebQuilter.com

Creating quilt designs at MyWebQuilter.com is now more flexible and powerful. You can now manually place quilt blocks in a quilt design and rotate quilt blocks in any direction.

This quilt design, Maple among Pines, is an example of using the new quilt design software capabilities at MyWebQuilter.com. Click here for the free quilt pattern for 'Maple among Pine Trees.




The Design Quilt page at MyWebQuilter.com looks like this. The Quilt Block area of the screen has been highlighted with a red box.


When you first arrive at the screen, MyWebQuilter.com will automatically place quilt blocks in the design based on your selected quilt blocks. Use the check boxes to the right of the selected quilt blocks to choose blocks for automatic placement.

To manually place a block on the quilt design, first click the block picture in the selected block list. Then click on the square on the quilt to place it.

To rotate or flip blocks, first click the rotate or flip buttons. Then click on the blocks on the quilt that should be changed.

Let me know what you think of the new features.
Happy Quilting!

New Quilt Sash Calculator

I added a new calculator to MyWebQuilter.com to quickly calculate quilt sash fabric requirements.  Just enter the number of columns, rows, block size and sash width.  Additional options include calculations in inches or CM and including a border the same size as the sash.  Click on Calculate to get your sash fabric requirements, quilt dimensions and instructions.  All the MyWebQuilter calculators are easy to use on your mobile phone!

Quilt Border Calculator

There are times when you are making a quilt when you need to add borders to increase the size of the quilt.  You may be trying to get the quilt to a specific size.  You may be limited by how much fabric you have. The MyWebQuilter.com Quilt Border Calculator  is free and can help you decide what size borders to add to your quilt. Enter the size of your current quilt and some border sizes you are considering.  Click calculate to get quilt dimensions and fabric requirements.  Change the border sizes and recalculate as often as you want. 

Lawyer's Puzzle Quilt Block Pattern

I am on a roll adding more traditional quilt blocks to www.MyWebQuilter.com . I just added the Lawyer's Puzzle - also known as the Barrister's Block. A 24 block quilt using this block looks like this: You can find the free quilt block pattern here . I love this example of the Lawyer's Puzzle painted on a barn. BTW - Here in the USA there is significance to showing this pattern in green. It is the only green you will have left after paying your lawyer! Happy quilting! Amber
