FAQS

What skill level are your quilt patterns designed for?

My quilt patterns are crafted to suit a variety of skill levels, from beginners to experienced quilters. Each pattern includes clear instructions to guide you step-by-step, and I often include tips that make complex-looking designs more approachable.

What is the Quilty Notes planner, and how can it help me?

Quilty Notes is a project planner designed specifically for quilters. It helps you track your quilt designs, materials, progress, costs, and techniques for up to 48 projects. It’s perfect for anyone who wants to stay organised and track all their quilt projects in one place. (Just to be clear I don't recommend having 48 projects on the go at once)

How do I download my free pattern?

After signing up with your email, you’ll receive a link to download your free quilt pattern. If you don’t see it right away, check your spam and feel free to reach out if you have any trouble accessing it.

Can I sell quilts made from your patterns?

Yes, you’re welcome to sell quilts you make using my patterns. I ask that you credit TheQuiltMachine.com for the pattern design if you’re sharing your work online or at events.
