Got em! That was fast. I was surprised they were free! Here is the website to read about the apps.

The C&T Publishing app is Quick and Easy Quilt Block Tool. I use it a lot.

I used the quilt fab app all the time and even wrote about it on my blog. It is free and really works.

Anyone with an iPhone or thinking about getting one this app might be great tool! I personally don't have one but now I want one :)

Now I want one too.

I'm glad you like my apps, QuiltFab and QuiltRef. It's been fun creating them. Let me know if there are features you'd like to see. I have another app in the works that has some fun eye candy to play around with. Since I've retired as a programmer, apps and quilting keep me off the streets!

Just downloaded both! Thanks! Glad you are creatively occupied and not on the street! ;-)

Try using a pencil eraser instead of your fingers.

22 yr. old Granddaughter has an IPhone, doubt she would be interested in that app, she has no interest in quilting. I hope when she gets older she will, hard telling what they may have by then.

Yes, they work on the iTouch (a.k.a. iPod touch). They will also work on the new Apple iPad that will be coming out in a couple of months. It's bigger (9.7" screen), so the onscreen keyboard is bigger too!
