    Applications (I think) there are different apps you can put onto your cell phones. From games, to where to find the cheapest gas, to who knows what all is out there. I have found several for quilting and fabrics, most cost money to download, some are free.

    There are a lot of apps for quilting. The best one is The Block Tool. The rest are very beginner types or lousy. Don't buy them. I also have Robert Kaufman's app. It's great. Those or the only two quilt apps I use. I'm waiting for EQ to have an app! The McCall's is new and it looks fun.

    Thanks for this thread! I've been using my iPhone for the past two years and have been downloading everything else except for quilting apps! Just didn't cross my mind for some reason LOL

    I just heard about another one
    Quiltersapp.com
    I checked it out on the web and it looks like it does a LOT. It is $7.99 though, but may be worth it.
    Does anyone use it?

    Do a search in the app store for quilts and they will list them all, free and paid and then you can see what appeals to you. I have several free ones.

    That's the one I linked to on page 1...here it is again. http://www.quiltersapp.com/ It was chosen as an Editors' Fresh Pick in the December 2010 issue of McCalls Quilting magazine.

    I think these are great ideas, but I just cannot make myself pay that much money each month for a phone. I always think how much fabric I can buy with $150+, but I am glad that you are enjoying yours. Have lots of fun.

    you have a point, and sometimes I think about how much we spend monthly for our phones (not quite $150, but still more than we used to). But once you have a PC in your pocket it is SO handy.
