## <mark style="color:blue;">Intro to Color Tags</mark>

A [*Color Tag*](https://glossary.prequilt.com/pq-glossary/cs#color-tags) is a tag that is used to link a quilt block piece to a fabric. Color Tags can be linked to both [*solid color swatches*](https://glossary.prequilt.com/pq-glossary/ss#solid-color-swatch) or [*printed fabric swatches*](https://glossary.prequilt.com/pq-glossary/ps#printed-fabric-swatch-also-fabric-swatch).&#x20;

When the fabric used by a Color Tag is changed (from a solid to another solid or from a solid to a printed fabric swatch or from a printed fabric swatch to another printed fabric swatch), everything that is linked to that Color Tag will also change and be updated automatically.
