How to use the Quilt Pattern Generator

Add a picture

Drop a photo, a drawing or a logo. Pictures with clear shapes and a few strong colours make the most recognisable quilts.

02

Set the size and fabrics

Pick a quilt size and the finished size of each square, in inches or centimetres, and how many fabrics to use. Rename the fabrics after the ones you have.

03

Cut and sew

Fix squares with the brush, then download the PDF chart with its cutting list, the chart PNG or the cutting list CSV, and sew the quilt row by row.

Quilt Pattern Generator FAQ

Is this quilt pattern generator free?

Yes. Make, edit and download as many quilt patterns as you like, with no account and no watermark.

Which quilt sizes can I choose?

Baby (crib) 36 × 52 in, throw 50 × 65 in, twin 68 × 86 in, queen 90 × 95 in and king 108 × 95 in, or a custom width in squares. The number of squares across and down comes from the quilt size divided by the finished square size, and the picture is cropped to that shape.

How is the cut size worked out?

Each square is cut at its finished size plus a seam allowance on every side: with the default ¼ in seam, a 2 in finished square is cut at 2½ in. In centimetres the default seam allowance is 0.75 cm. You can change both.

How is the fabric amount estimated?

Squares are cut from strips across the usable fabric width (42 in or 110 cm by default, which you can change). The tool counts the strips each fabric needs and rounds the length up to the next ⅛ yard or 0.1 m. Nothing extra is added for shrinkage or cutting mistakes, so buy a little more if you prewash.

Are binding and backing included?

Yes, as estimates: binding from 2½ in (6.5 cm) strips long enough to go round the quilt plus extra for joins, and backing from fabric widths sewn together with 4 in (10 cm) extra on each side. Borders are not added; plan them separately.

Does it make half-square triangles?

No. The pattern uses whole squares only, as in a pixel or postage stamp quilt. Smaller squares give smoother edges.

Is my picture uploaded?

No. The pattern is made in your browser; your picture never leaves your device.
