Quilt Studio & Editor

Quilt Studio is where your quilt layouts live. The Quilt Editor is where blocks become quilts. If you've ever sketched a layout on graph paper or pinned blocks to a design wall, this is the same process on screen.

Quilt Studio

Each quilt appears as a card showing its full layout at a glance: blocks, sashing, borders, and all. You can see how a design looks before tapping in to edit.

Creating a new quilt

Tap + to start a new quilt. Choose a grid type and set the grid size, then land in the Quilt Editor to begin placing blocks. You can also start a quilt directly from a block's preview sheet in Block Studio, which creates a quilt pre-filled with that block.

Managing quilts

Long-press a quilt card for options: Duplicate (to try a different colorway or arrangement), Rename, or Delete.

Quilt Editor

A quilt layout is a grid of cells. Each cell holds a block or is left empty. On top of the block grid, you can add sashing (strips between blocks), cornerstones (squares where sashing strips meet), and borders around the edges.

The Quilt Editor renders every block with its actual colors and fabrics, so you can see how blocks interact side by side. A pinwheel block that looks simple on its own might create unexpected secondary patterns when tiled in a grid.

Live connection: If you edit a block in the Block Editor, every quilt that uses it updates automatically. You don't need to re-place blocks after making changes.

Pattern continuation

When you add rows or columns to your quilt, BloqLoft continues the existing block arrangement predictably. If you had an alternating pattern of two blocks, new cells follow that same pattern. This keeps your layout consistent as you resize.
