Frequently Asked Questions
Are there really over 1 Million quilt patterns on this CD?
There are well over 50,000 unique one-block quilt patterns on this CD. There are 50,000 x 50,000 two-block quilt patterns on this CD. Each one-block and two-block quilt can be configured in over 1,100 ways by selecting different block and border sizes and row and blocks per row combinations. The real number of patterns is so large it is unbelievable, so we simply state that there are more than 1 Million quilt patterns available on the Like Sew CD.
Are the patterns on the CD very hard?
NO! All of the patterns on the CD only use squares and half-square triangles. Each pattern is made up of only 1 or 2 blocks that are repeated to create the quilt designs. Some of the patterns may look complex, but they are all very simple.
How did you make all of these quilt patterns?
Like Sew is a computer program that creates quilt patterns with a patent-pending quilt pattern generation algorithm. No one pattern was designed by hand. Since the patterns are created by a computer program, interesting patterns that would likely never be thought of by a human quilt designer are possible.
I have Windows 98. Will Like Sew work on my computer?
No. Like Sew only works on Windows 2000, XP, Media Center, and Vista. It also requires a small amount of hard drive space (about 50 MB) and other resources. If you are running one of the required versions of Windows mentioned previously, you will likely have the other necessary requirements to run Like Sew.
Can I sell or share patterns that I print from Like Sew?
If you are interested in selling patterns or printing patterns to give to others, please contact Kristin for special licensing options at
cutequiltpatterns@gmail.com.
How did you come up with the idea for Like Sew?
Like Sew was a husband and wife combo. Kristin, the designer of
baby quilt patterns at CuteQuiltPatterns.com, and her husband Sean created Like Sew. Kristin provided the brains and inspiration for the product and Sean contributed the technical and mathematical expertise.
