Cora - Sew Your Fabric Stash

I really like how the app allows you to keep an inventory of your fabrics. One thing I would suggest is to allow you to use more of the categories to filter and maybe do a clear division of the colors. What I mean is, I would especially like to be able to filter based on all of the categories because I’d especially find it useful to filter by style.

This app is pretty great for inventorying yardage. The search function leaves some to be desired. But the thing that I wish was included was a section to separate our precuts and bundles. Not sure if the developer is still working to improve the app but that would be a fabulous addition!

I love this app. I can find what I need and it’s laid out well. Very user friendly. The only thing I dislike is that there is no “login” so if I download the app on my phone and have it on my iPad, I can only view my fabric on the device I input the fabric on. I own at least a thousand yards, and if I lose my phone, upgrade, etc I will have to input it all again. I would pay more, pay a monthly fee even, to be able to login and have it on multiple devices and not lose my data, Other than that I love it!

I did find this app helpful several years ago but it is no longer being supported and the export CSV button just throws you out of the program. Hours of input wasted.

I’ve been using for about a year after the precious app I used was discontinued and I lost my entire stash! I am only using Cora for yarn and crafting books. I made a little cheat sheet so the way I enter data filters for my needs. Here’s how I tweaked it: Location=Brand or Book: Title Weight=#1-6 Type=Sock, DK, WW, Chunky, Book Content=SW Merino, Nylon etc. without percentages Design=Solid, Gradient, Striping Colors=List colors or Hand-Dyed Sort Color=Main Color Length=Enter amount Width=Yarn Weight #1-6 Scrap Amount=None, Small, Large Brand=Dye Lot Designer=Colorway Collection=Collection I sort by A-Z, Type, Location. I take a photo of everything and it’s great!

Very easy to use. I have a lot more fabric than I thought. Love the App for organizing my stash.

I was looking forward to using this and spent a good amount of time adding my entire fabric inventory which is quite large. I updated the app and the entire inventory disappeared except for 7 items. Not sure what happened. 🤷🏼‍♀️

It’s a nice app to organize fabric. I do wish it had better filtering capabilities. The ability to filter by name/designer/collection would be so much more useful than most of the options offered. That way I can sort all my fabric by designer instead of everything being all mixed together. That way if I want to see say all my BackStitch fabric I can filter to see just that. This way as well, as I add new designs from particular designers they will all be together, and not mixed up. The option to press and hold to reorganize on the grid screen would also be nice, if adding new filtering capabilities isn’t an option. That way I can organize them to my liking. I could really care less to organize my fabric by cost or the dates they were acquired/added.

Because of these two issues, even after having this app on my phone for nearly a YEAR, I haven’t used it. I realize I am sorely missing out,however as we are are about to get new phones, can the developers please tell WHY I SHOULD USE CORA? I am being truly sincere in asking, and would appreciate a well- thought out reply. Thank you very much.

This is a great app. I am quilter with hundreds of fabrics. Cora helps me catalog and sort them so I always know what I have. I would recommend it to anyone who has a fabric stash.
