  1. PREQUILT FEATURES

Share Your Quilt

Share access to your quilt design with another PreQuilt subscriber & they can clone it to their account.

WARNING: When you share access to your quilt, anyone with the URL will be able to see everything in your quilt (blocks, fabrics, etc).

This is not a digital coloring page (see FAQs below for more info).

NOTE: Sharing a quilt is not collaborating on a quilt. Your original design can only be changed and saved by you. The shared quilt can only be copied (cloned), so the original is not affected. The cloned copy becomes its own version of your original quilt.

Quilt Accessibility for Cloning

Sometimes you might make a quilt design and you want to allow another PreQuilt subscriber to copy your quilt design and save it to their own PreQuilt account.

Well, with this feature, you can generate a sharable URL for your quilt design and give that to another PreQuilt subscriber. They can then clone a copy of your quilt to their account and create their own version.


FAQs

How is this different from a digital coloring page?

A digital coloring page enables anyone (no PreQuilt subscription required) to recolor your quilt design using their own fabric choices. They can ONLY change the fabrics being used. They will not be able to see individual blocks or redesign your quilt.

Shared access to a quilt enables PreQuilt subscribers to copy your quilt design to their own PreQuilt account. Once cloned, they can change where fabrics are being used, can redesign blocks, and can really change anything and everything from the original quilt.

Do changes someone makes to their copy affect the original quilt?

No. The original design can only be changed or edited by the owner of the original quilt. Any changes that are made after using the URL will not affect the original design.


Help Guide

a | For the Owner of the Original Quilt

NOTE: Sharing a quilt is not collaborating on a quilt. Your original design can only be changed and saved by you. The shared quilt can only be copied (cloned), so the original is not affected.

  2. Click on the Quilt Settings tab on the left side control panel.

  3. Toggle the button for Share with a PreQuilt member to the right to enable this feature.

  4. Click on the Share Link button.

  5. A public copy of your quilt will open in a new tab.

  6. Copy the URL address from the browser and send that URL to your friend.

b | For the Cloner of the Original Quilt

NOTE: You cannot save any changes to a shared quilt until you clone it to your PreQuilt account.

Once the owner of the original quilt has enabled it to be shared, you can follow these steps to clone and save it to your PreQuilt account.

  1. Log into your PreQuilt account.

  2. On a separate tab, paste the URL address and press enter.

  3. You will see a public copy of the original quilt open.

  4. Click on Clone Quilt in the pop-up window.

  5. You will be redirected to your new saved copy of the original quilt that is now in your account.

    • NOTE: You can now save the quilt.

  6. Edit the quilt as you wish & Don't forget to save!
