Quilters Creative Touch 6 Software Levels

Quilters Creative Touch 6 is the new version of The Grace Company's automated quilting software. We've simplified the software to make it more affordable and easier to learn.

We have three upgrade packages for Quilter's Creative Touch 6. Learn about each version of the software to determine which level is right for you:

Upgrade 1 - QCT 6 to QCT 6 Plus

When you add this Upgrade #1, you move to the next level of computerized quilting automation. QCT 6 Plus will give you more quilting designs and placement features. The second level of the software includes all the features from QCT 5 Beginnings:

  • Over 200 built-in digitized quilting designs.
  • PantoStacker - Customize your pantograph designs with the ability to stagger and offset designs.
  • Power Placement - Place and stitch single blocks, triangles, and more.
  • Easy pattern sizing, rotating and flipping.
  • Rulers and centering guides.
  • Print any pattern or pantograph.
  • Import digitized long arm quilting patterns into the software.

Here's a video showcasing many of the designs and some features included with QCT 6 Plus:
