Design a completely unique quilt using a library of over 6,000+ blocks with the Electric Quilt 8 Quilt Design Software.

Electric Quilt 8 (EQ8) is the most user-friendly quilt design software on the market! It’s redesigned from previous versions with a friendly new look that includes large interface elements for faster, more intuitive learning.

EQ8 comes with more than 40 new and updated features, including thousands of new block designs and fabrics. With EQ8, you can design your own quilts using the 6,000+ included blocks and fabrics (or add your own!). Print your fabric yardage, rotary-cutting charts, templates, or foundation patterns and sew your unique masterpiece!

In EQ8, you can

  • Design quilts at any size  Start with a layout from the library, or choose a pre-designed Quick Quilt project for instant inspiration. For complete control, design your layout from scratch!
  • Draw block patterns of all sizes and styles  EQ8 has full drawing capabilities to create any kind of block. Draft your block from scratch, use the built-in grids or import a photo or sketch to trace. The Block Library is full of over 6,000 pre-drawn designs ready for you to use in your quilt designs. Use these blocks as they are, or edit them to add your own touch.
  • Scan and import fabric  Scan your fabric or take a picture of it, then import the image into EQ8. Use the scaling, straightening and cropping tools to make sure your fabric looks as accurate as possible. You can also add fabrics from the web! The EQ8 Fabric Library comes pre-loaded with 6,200 fabrics from top manufacturers!
  • Calculate yardage  Get yardage estimates for your quilt, including borders! You choose the appropriate fabric width to get the most accurate requirements. Using fat quarters? No problem! If you make changes to your quilt, your yardage automatically updates.
  • Print patterns  Print patterns for the blocks in your quilt. EQ8 uses the sizes you defined for the blocks and adds the seam allowance, where necessary. Choose to print templates, foundation patterns, rotary cutting charts and pictures of your blocks and quilts.
  • Export images  Are you submitting your quilt design to a magazine? EQ8 exports high-resolution images perfect for print publications.
