Seller program

Sell quilt patterns to people who will actually make them

List a pattern you already wrote, or publish one from the Quiltler studio so buyers can recolor it in their own fabrics. You set the price. Any paid plan can sell: Quiltler takes 10%, or 5% on Designer, pays you through Stripe, and will not let a buyer put your work back on sale under another name.

2ways to list, one market
Two ways in

A pattern you drafted yourself, or one from your Quiltler library

Both kinds are shown the same way, on purpose. Fifteen years of EQ8 patterns belong here as much as a quilt you drew this morning. Same search, same payouts, same badges available — the badge tells the shopper what is in the parcel, not which listing to rank first.

Designer's own pattern

A pattern I drafted myself

You have already written it. Upload the PDF as you laid it out — up to five files, so instructions and templates can stay separate. Your diagrams and photography stay untouched.

Designed in Quiltler

A design from my library

Pick any quilt you have drawn here. The printable pattern — cutting chart, assembly diagram, full-size templates — is made from the design, and updated when you make changes. The buyer also gets the design file, so they can recolor and resize it.

Why designers list here

A buyer who can recolor the pattern is a buyer who will sew it

Most pattern shops hand over a file and hope. On Quiltler, a pattern designed in Quiltler opens on the buyer’s design wall. The shopper tries their own fabrics before they cut, which is the difference between a download that sits in a folder and a quilt that gets made.

  • Your shop, at its own address. A public storefront you can put in an Instagram bio, without asking anyone to sign in first.
  • Quiltler-only listings, if you want them. Publish a pattern that is never delivered as a PDF. Buyers read, recolor and print inside Quiltler. Optional, shown as a badge, fixed at publish.
  • Listing statistics on Designer. How many people looked at each pattern and how many bought it, so you can see which designs actually sell.
  • Your own name on the pattern. Designer puts your name on the printable pattern instead of the Quiltler watermark.
The market you are walking into

Fake photos and resold patterns are the reason designers leave other shops

Quiltler is built so those two scams are hard here. The full argument — including what we cannot promise — is on the marketplace trust page.

AI pictures are watermarked at the source

Burned in as the image is made. A picture made with the room visualizer arrives in a listing already marked, and the mark cannot be removed.

A pattern you sold cannot be sold on

A purchase is recorded against the design. Listing it again is refused, even after someone changes the fabrics. That is the seller-program protection, not a terms footnote.

Reviews need a receipt

A rival would have to buy your pattern before they could leave a one-star review. You can reply; you cannot edit or delete one.

How to start

Set it up yourself in four steps

1

Pick a paid plan

Quilter ($7.99 a month or $49.99 a year) sells at the standard 10% fee. Designer, $99 a year, includes everything in Quilter plus the 5% fee, listing statistics and your own name on the pattern instead of the Quiltler watermark.

2

Set up payments with Stripe

Stripe, the payment company we use, checks your identity and the bank account you want to be paid into. A pattern cannot go on sale until that is done. Buyers’ card details never reach Quiltler.

3

List a pattern

Upload your own PDF, or pick a quilt from your library. Set the price, the license, and whether it is Quiltler-only. The fee is shown before you publish.

4

Get paid

Buyers pay on Stripe's secure checkout page. Quiltler keeps its fee and Stripe sends the rest to your bank account, on Stripe's usual schedule.

Questions

What designers ask before they list

Do I have to design in Quiltler to sell here?

No. Independent PDFs sit next to Quiltler-drafted listings. The badges say what the buyer receives. The market is not sorted by them.

What happens if my plan lapses?

If Designer lapses to Quilter, the Designer tools and the reduced 5% fee end and the standard 10% fee applies. Without any paid plan you cannot list new patterns, but you can still edit or take down the ones you have. Buyers who already bought a pattern keep their download.

Where do shoppers browse?

The public market is quiltler.com/app/market. Once you have listed a pattern, your shop gets its own web address. Both can be found on Google and other search engines.

List your first pattern

Choose a paid plan, set up payments with Stripe, then open Sell in Quiltler. Browse the market first if you want to see how listings read to a shopper.
