A failure in minimalism - and a modpack with three mods.
Making minecraft smoother, more discoverable, and show you cool mods since 2022.

Alpha Note

TQuilt Modded is in alpha! It should be stable, but the quest modventuring quest trees are blatantly unfinished. Try one of the other two packs for a more complete experience!

Vanilla Ice [Vanilla+ Content]

Tinkerer's Quilt Plus is a Vanilla+ Modpack - It adds a bit of content to items, blocks, and worlds, but doesn't add any elaborate new systems.

Afterword

All present minecraft modding is built on a decade of work from other people (and non-people, we don't discriminate).

This modpack started in January 2021 as a skyrim-style vanilla+ "modding guide" - and only exists in the form it has today thanks to much help from the community!

Special Thanks

Mod contributors and collaborators - Ampflower, Pug, LemmaEOF, Silver, Garden System, Kat, Aquaholic, Octal, Ami, Leo, Janet, Jasmine, and also we have walnut memory so probably like a lot of other people lets be honest - Falkreon probably? you get the picture.
More generally - unascribed's guild and its inhabitants
The queer pluralfolk who initially tested the pack in early 2022 (you know who you are)
Bleu (for drawing the original Kapesi bust in the icon/banner art)
DuppyPuff (for drawing kapesi used in the new icon/banner art)
The many, many other folks who've provided development support and feedback for us and our modding ventures - this project wouldn't be possible without you!
