Hi All
I've been lurking for quite a while and learned a lot from this board. I asked my DH to make a program for me so I thought I'd share it with you. Hope it
will come handy for some of your layouts.
Hope it's ok to post this here. Otherwise, please feel free to move or delete.

Happy Quilting!

Oops. Forgot to post the link.

Wow thanks that is great!!!!!

I can't figure out how to open it. Help please. Thank you, Carol

Do you use Windows? Which one?

Up to and including Windows Vista...
After you download the file, double click on quilt.zip and select "extract all
files" then you will have a file quilt-msdos.exe and it should just work.

If you're using Windows 7, you can go do www.dosbox.com, click on
downloads, windows then you will have a program called dosbox.exe
Double click on that to install it. Then put the quilt-msdos.exe into
the dosbox and it will run.

If you have any problem, let me know and we'll try to help you.

We don't use Windows but if someone here has a C compiler and
would like to compile it to a native windows binary you could email
me the binary and my DH will put it on the webpage.

It says to open the file it wants to extract a file. I'm not sure what this means or does.

Thanks you for your help and the program, it was really generous of you and your husband to do this. I hope it works with this computer.

I have windows vista and I can extract it but I can't seem to get beyond that point. Is there something I'm not doing correctly or missing?

See if this helps.

You're welcome. Thanks for letting us know that it worked for you.

Are the site you provided safe? I am using a computer that contains my husbands work information on. Thank you, Csrol

I run AVG on my PC for websites and it came back safe. And the download has nothing dangerous either.

Thanks, I would get the pop up saying it's not a secure site. I don't know a lot about computers and I was afraid I would ruin this one, it's one my husband bought for work.

Don't worry, we use Linux and it's very secure. No virus, malware and
other nasty stuff out there.

thanks

Please note that there is now a Windows version which you can download.
