Help Guide

To use a printed fabric swatch in a Fabric Link:

1. Return to your quilt design and click on the FABRIC LINKS tab on the left side control panel.

   
2. Click on the Edit button for one of your fabric links. In this example, I'm going to edit Fabric Link B.

   
3. Click on the PRINTS tab to view all the printed fabric swatches that we've already uploaded to PreQuilt.

   
4. Click on the Select button for the fabric swatch that you'd like to use.

   
5. You will see the Fabric Link is updated as well as all the blocks that are using that Fabric Link.

   

   • NOTE: A sub-panel will open with controls that will shift the fabric swatch left/right, up/down, or rotate it. You can use these to 'fussy cut' your fabric.

     
6. Click on the x button () on the Fabric Link panel to close it.
7. Don't forget to save the quilt!
