# 07d | Mirror Quilt Blocks
## Module 07d | How to Mirror Quilt Blocks in a Quilt
Sometimes you'll want to mirror a block to create some symmetry or another design element. In this sub-module, you'll learn how to easily mirror a block (horizontally or vertically).
Please note that when you mirror a block, you are often manifesting a unique block that has not been created as a block. This is important to remember when you go to make your quilt that some blocks might have a regular and mirrored version.
Mirrored blocks will be noted in your quilt information download and denoted with an asterisk.

**NOTE:** The blocks in the images below are different than those in the video. This is because, I mistakenly used a block that looks the same when its mirrored and rotated. I'll update the video at a later date.

### a | Mirror Horizontally
To HORIZONTALLY mirror a quilt block:
1. Select the **block cells in your quilt** that you want to mirror. In the video, I selected a column of block cells.
2. Click on the **ROTATE/MIRROR tab** on the left side control panel.
3. It will expand. Then click on the **Left/Right button** in the **Mirror** section.
4. You will now see the blocks are mirrored horizontally.
### b | Mirror Vertically
To VERTICALLY mirror a quilt block:
1. Select the **block cells in your quilt** that you want to mirror. In the video, I selected a row of block cells.
2. Click on the **ROTATE/MIRROR** **tab** on the left side control panel.
3. It will expand. Then click on the **Top/Bottom button** in the **Mirror** section.
4. You will now see the blocks are mirrored vertically.
