FAQ

Questions, answered.

Something else? A real person replies.

hello@quarterinch.app

Is it a subscription?

Quilter is $9 a month or $89 a year, and you can cancel any time. The Free plan is free forever, and opening, viewing and exporting your quilts never need a plan.

What happens if I cancel?

You keep Quilter to the end of the period you paid for, then move to the Free plan. Nothing is deleted: quilts beyond your three free ones become read-only until you come back.

Which devices does it work on?

iPad, Mac, Windows, Chromebook and phone, with the same quilts on each, from one plan.

Can I use fabric I already have?

Yes. Photograph a charm pack, layer cake or fat quarters, or add fabrics to My fabrics. Quarter Inch designs with them, and your shopping list asks only for what’s missing.

What’s happening with EQ8 on Mac?

Apple has said macOS 27 is the last version with general Rosetta support. EQ8 for Mac relies on Rosetta today, and EQ has said it plans to have a solution in place before macOS 28. Whatever happens, you can open your EQ8 projects free in Quarter Inch today, on your Mac, your iPad or any browser, then cut from checked charts and print at true size. Your quilts are never tied to one computer.

Do you use AI?

Only when you ask. Help can build a quilt from your words, or change one: “make it queen size with a 3″ border.” It chooses the blocks and colors; our math measures every cut. One switch hides it everywhere, and we never train on your designs.

What if you shut down?

Your quilts use an open format, and you can export everything at any time.

Are you part of EQ?

No. Quarter Inch is independent and not affiliated with The Electric Quilt Company.

Make your next quilt come out right.

Free plan, no card needed. Your EQ8 projects open too, without an account.
