QuiltInk 1st Birthday!!

Let’s celebrate the 1st QuiltInk anniversary! Don’t miss any of the big events!

  • Pixy Quilt party!
  • Giveaway on our Instagram page of a wonderful Carolina Oneto colour related course.

Pixy Quilt

Have you ever tried to plan a quilt on a sheet of paper with a grid using your crayons? Sure you have. It’s a very good way to plan your unique quilt which doesn’t require a lot of instructions and can be assembled very quickly.

Now, QuiltInk offers you the option to plan a pixel quilt in a digital, fun, fast and eco-friendly way. 

From now on, you will find on QuiltInk our PixyQuilt, a set of grids created for you to plan your pixel quilt with us. It includes 7 different block layouts using 2 1/2″ squares or 5″ squares as bassis.

And the Pixyquilt comes with 2 new additions to the QuiltInk app! 

  1. Displaying the number of pieces of every fabric/colour used to colour a PixyQuilt.
  2. The possibility to display other information over the coloring diagrams. On the PixyQuilts exporting diagrams you will see the row and column numbers. It can be very useful to assemble the quilt.

You can see these two new options on the exporting section of every colour version on QuiltInk. Accessible from the colouring pages, the Wall, and from your account. If you want to learn more about the exporting option on QuiltInk visit our tutorial about exporting colouring versions.

We have set up a page with more information  and instructions to piece these Pixy Quilts. There, you can check the number of precuts and yardage requirements, and basic assembly instructions. If you have any other questions please contact us at info@quiltink.com or chat with us on Instagram!
