Color Tag: A is used to tag or link a block piece to a tag.
ALERT: When the color of a is changed (either from a solid to another solid - or from a solid to a printed fabric swatch), everything that is linked to or uses that Color Tag will also change.
04 | Create 2+ new color tags.
Objective | To understand how to manage solid color options using in PreQuilt. You will also learn how to add additional color tags and change color tag colors.
Did You Know | Each quilt has three default color tags (A, B, and C). If your quilt requires more than 3 different fabrics or colors, you can easily add more. Also, the solid color cards for most major fabric manufacturers are preloaded in PreQuilt.
Click on the COLOR TAG tab on the .
Click on the Create Color Tag button.
A fourth color tag is added, Color Tag D, with a default color of Kona Baby Pink.
Manufacturer Color Cards: PreQuilt comes pre-loaded with the solid fabric color cards of most fabric manufactures, like Robert Kaufman's Kona, Andover's Century Solids, etc.
Since each new color tag's color will have the default color of Kona Baby Pink, you will most likely want to change this new color tag's color.
The Color Tag panel (also called Fabric Library Panel) will slide in. Using the dropdown menu, click on your preferred solid fabric manufacturer.
In this example, I'll select my favorite, Paintbrush Studio.
Click on the swatch for Color Tag D's new color.
In this example, I'll select Bright Aqua.
After clicking on the swatch, the panel will close and you will now see the new color for Color Tag D.
Click on the Edit button () for Color Tag D.
