What happens if I go over my quilt or customer limit?#

You'll see a warning message when you're approaching your plan limits. Once you reach the limit, you won't be able to add new quilts or customers until you upgrade your plan or the annual period resets.

Customers & Quilts#

Can I delete a customer by mistake?#

Deleting a customer is reversible — it's a "soft delete," meaning the record is hidden from your list but not permanently removed. Contact support if you need to recover a deleted customer.

Can I change the price on a quilt after it's been saved?#

Yes. Open the quilt, click Edit, update the pricing fields, and save. You can also override the auto-calculated price with a custom amount.

Can I assign a quilt to a different customer?#

Yes. Open the quilt, click Edit, and select a different customer from the dropdown.

What does each quilt status mean?#

Status	Meaning
Received	Quilt has been logged in, work hasn't started yet
In Progress	You're actively working on the quilt
Completed	Quilting is done, awaiting customer pickup
Delivered	Quilt has been picked up or delivered

Invoices#

Do invoices get sent to customers automatically?#

No. Quilt Logger generates the invoice for you, but you choose when and how to send it. You can download a PDF and send it yourself, or use the Email to Customer button (Basic and Pro plans).

Can I edit an invoice after it's been created?#

Yes. Go to Invoices, find the invoice, and click Edit. You can update amounts, notes, and status.

Can I create an invoice without a quilt?#

Invoices in Quilt Logger are tied to quilts. To generate an invoice, you'll first need to create a quilt record for the customer.

How do I mark an invoice as paid?#

Open the invoice and click Record Payment. You can enter a partial payment or full payment, along with the payment method and date.

Services & Pricing#

Why can't I create a quilt?#

You need to have at least one quilting rate configured before you can create a quilt. Go to Services → Rates and add a price rate with a price per square inch, then try again.

Can I have different prices for different customers?#

The system uses your configured rates as defaults, but you can override the price on any individual quilt when creating or editing it.

Can I add a service I charged for but didn't set up ahead of time?#

Yes. When editing a quilt, you can manually adjust the cost fields. You can also add new extras in Services → Extras and then apply them.

Communications#

Why can't I send SMS messages?#

SMS messaging is a Pro plan feature. You'll also need to have the customer's phone number saved and their SMS consent recorded. See the Communication System page for details.

Will my customers receive emails automatically when I change a quilt status?#

Automated email notifications are available on Basic and Pro plans. When enabled, customers receive an email when their quilt status changes. On the Free plan, you'll need to contact customers manually.

Data & Privacy#

Can I export my data?#

Yes. Go to the Export section in the top menu and choose what to download — customers, quilts, invoices, or a tax summary. Data exports as a CSV file that you can open in Excel or Google Sheets.

Is my data backed up?#

Yes. Quilt Logger automatically backs up your data in the cloud. You can also manually export your data anytime for your own peace of mind.

What happens to my data if I cancel?#

Your data is retained for one year after cancellation or account deactivation. During that time, you can reactivate your account and all your data will be restored. After one year, data is permanently deleted. We recommend exporting your data before cancelling.

Troubleshooting#

The page isn't loading correctly. What should I do?#

Refresh the page (press F5 or Ctrl+R / Cmd+R on Mac)
Clear your browser cache (usually in browser Settings → History)
Try a different browser
Check your internet connection

I'm not receiving emails from Quilt Logger.#

Check your spam or junk folder. If emails are going to spam, mark them as "Not Spam" so future emails come through. Make sure the email address on your account is correct by checking Settings → Basic Settings.

Something isn't working the way I expect. How do I report it?#
