An option to get rid of the white lines, or to make them less noticeable, is to export the quilt as a PNG file, at a larger size and high dpi and then resize the image. For example, the quilt below was exported at 20 x 20 and 300 dpi then resized to 8 x 8 and 150 dpi. You can resize the image on the Image Worktable or in another program, like Photoshop.
