Blocks Dashboard
Blocks Dashboard
The Block Dashboard is the home of all your quilt blocks - custom blocks, imported blocks from the PreQuilt Block Library and any AddOn Collaborator block libraries that you have purchased.
From the main Block Dashboard, you can:
a | Create a New Block
There are two different starting points for creating a custom block - from the Block Dashboard or while designing a quilt. When you create a new block from the Block Dashboard, it is saved in your Block Stash and can be used in any quilt.
It's important to note that the color tags that you use in a block saved on the Block Dashboard will be overwritten by the color tags set in the quilt when you import it into a quilt. To ensure the color tags on your block stay the same, change the color tags on your quilt to match those used in the quilt block.
b | Import Blocks
There are two different libraries from which you can import quilt blocks. Importing a quilt block will save a copy of it in your Block Stash. You can import blocks from:
Free, open source quilt blocks that have been created in PreQuilt
Good resource for common traditional quilt blocks
Grab and go block resource
Paid block libraries that coordinate with a specific collaborator's quilt pattern
One time payment will unlock the block library & accompanying quilt layouts
c | Organize Blocks
d | Edit Blocks
You can also edit a quilt block from the dashboard by clicking on the Edit Block button located underneath the quilt block on its tile. Other editing options are changing the block name, cloning the block, and deleting it from the Block Stash.
