06b | Find a Single Fabric Swatch
SWATCH SIZE: It's important to try and find a swatch image that contains a ruler so that you can set the scale of the fabric swatch (so that PreQuilt knows how to use it in your quilts). If it's not in the image, see if the fabric manufacturer lists the swatch's dimension.

To find a single printed fabric swatch, you can often start at your local fabric shop's online website.
Search online and find the digital fabric swatch for the printed fabric you'd like to use. If you have the fabric already, you can often use the selvedge to get all the relevant information you need to do an accurate search. In the video tutorial, I was using a Painterly Petals print from Robert Kaufman.
Download and save the jpg image for the printed fabric swatches onto your computer.
