In EQ5 and EQ6 it is the 6th tool down from the top. Once you have done that you can turn the block with the Rotate Tool. If you don’t see your quilt block make sure the pop up is showing Blocks.Ĭlick on the squares where you want to put your quilt block. You will see a pop up window with your quilt block in it. You can hover over the buttons til you see the right one. You should have one block saved in your sketchbook Block section. This should take you back to the quilt layout. So you will have a quilt that looks like the second picture here. The size of the block won’t matter right now.Īnd the sashing should be moved back to the left for 0 for now. You can change the size of your block if you want.įor our purposes please change the Number of blocks to 3 in both Horizontal and vertical. Just backspace to get rid of what number is there and put your numbers in. You can decide how many blocks you want horizontally and vertically and change it accordingly. You will see a window pop up with a layout box on the side that looks like the first picture below. You have your project open and you named it New. Okay Let’s start with making a simple quilt block. If you can’t find the tool you need or don’t know what I am talking about just ask. You can write notes to go along with your designs /you can delete things/ and add things /and keep all your fabrics in one place as well as any blocks you make etc. You save everything you want to keep in there. The best way to learn what they are and what they do is to use them. The rest of them I’ll explain as we go along. Some of them should be self explanatory as in New Project / Save etc.
