**PreQuilt** is an online software application that helps you visualize and design your quilt ideas.&#x20;

**Laura Henneberry**, a quilter, and **Gar Liu**, a developer, are the founders of **PreQuilt**, an online web application for designing and visualizing quilts. Together they’ve teamed up to use technology to enable quilters to design and visualize quilts in fun and surprising ways.

PreQuilt was born one night when Laura was struggling to design [*<mark style="color:blue;">The Circus Tent Quilt</mark>*](https://commonwealthquilts.com/) with her limited Adobe skills. Gar looked over her shoulder and said, something like “I could build something for you that would speed this up.” And the rest is history... Or rather it’s the start of the ever evolving software application you see today.
