Save, share and back up

QuiltCrafter has no account: your projects, fabrics and photos live only in your browser.

Backup

Press "Take a backup" on My projects or in the fabric library. It saves everything, projects, fabrics, photos, collections and colour cards, in one .quilt file. Keep it somewhere safe, and bring it back with "Import", also on another computer. A banner reminds you when you have changed a lot since the last one.

A project that cannot be read, for instance because it was saved in a format that is too old, is listed on its own under My projects with the reason and the buttons "Download as file" and "Delete". The backup takes it along as it is, and when a file holds a project that cannot be read, the rest comes in all the same.

Share and print

"Share and print" in the bar has it all: "Share as a link …" makes a link with the whole design (without photos) that you can send; "Export project file" gives the project with its photos as a file; "Save the quilt as an image" gives a PNG; and "Pattern booklet" prints or saves a PDF.

Feedback

While QuiltCrafter is in beta, "Feedback" at the top and in the menu sends a bug, an idea or a question straight to us. If you like, the project can come along, so we see what you see.
