Quilt

Describe the quilting or bring your artwork. Quilt plans every line for your batting and your machine, as one continuous path, and writes the file your longarm or multi-needle runs.

What Quilt can take on

Quilt reads your design the way a longarm quilter does. Every area gets a fill that holds the batting, every line joins the next so the needle travels as one path, and every row fits your machine — so the first quilt off the frame is the one you designed.

Every fill the trade uses

Meander and stipple, pebbles, feathers, echoes, crosshatch and grids, arcs and fans, channels and piano keys, scrolls, geometric and traditional fills, motifs and edge-to-edge rows — each area of the quilt gets one that suits it.

Spaced for your batting

The quilting never runs further apart than your batting allows, so it never shifts or bunches — and the loft you choose sets how close or open the quilting sits.

One path, few stops

Lines are joined so the needle travels as one continuous path, with as few starts and stops as the design allows — and the sheet says how each one is secured on your machine.

Native to your machine

The file is written for your machine — its throat or panel width, its stitch length, its needle bar on a multi-needle — and read back before you get it.

What’s in every quilt file

Every quilt file is one bundle: the file the machine runs, and everything the quilter needs to load it, set it and check it before the first pass.

Quilt file

The whole quilting path, in DXF and in your machine’s own format where it has one — QLI, IQP, HQF or PAT — read back after it is written.

Runs on your machine

Choose your machine when you start. The file is written for that machine — its width, its stitch length, its needle bar and its own file format.

Computer-guided longarm machines

DXF, and the system’s own file — QLI, IQP, HQF or PAT — where it reads one.

Multi-needle quilting machines

Rows the needle bar can sew, the repeat locked to the needle pitch.

Single-needle and midarm CNC machines

DXF, sized to the machine’s throat.

Frames from 381 to 2,921 mm

Rows and blocks fitted to the width the machine can reach as the quilt rolls on.

Start where your design starts

From a prompt

Describe the quilting in your own words — the fill, the motif, the border, the quilt’s size. It is drawn first, then planned for your machine.

Frequently asked questions

What file does my machine get?

Every machine gets DXF, and longarm systems that read their own format also get QLI, IQP, HQF or PAT. Multi-needle machines get rows their needle bar can sew. Every file comes with a quilting sheet and a stitch preview.

Will the quilting hold my batting?

Yes. The quilting never runs further apart than your batting allows, so it never shifts or bunches.

How many starts and stops will there be?

As few as the design allows. Lines are joined into one continuous path wherever they can be, and the quilting sheet says how each start and stop is secured on your machine.

Can I quilt edge to edge?

Yes. A row is drawn to repeat across the quilt, each row meeting the next with no gaps and no overlaps, fitted to your machine’s width.

Can I quilt custom blocks and borders?

Yes. Blocks, borders, centres and sections each take their own fill, and a motif you draw becomes the quilting line itself.

Can I see the quilting before I load it?

Yes. Every file comes with a stitch preview drawn from the file itself.

How is a quilt file priced?

Start free, then choose Pro or Max. Each machine file is paid from your plan’s balance; how each file is priced is set out on the plans page.
