Learn how to import a panel and coordinating fabrics, and then use this to design a quilt.
Robert Kaufman has a wonderful new collection of fabric panels called Picture This. In this week's video tutorial, I will share with you how to use one of their panels for a quilt, import and resize coordinating fabrics and then design a coordinating pieced border - all using EQ8.

I'm just starting with EQ8 and my first is a panel. This video is very helpful but I do have one question. When you imported the companion fabrics, you checked the size (6") and then said 4-1/2" but then applied the 6" size which confused me. Trying to understand why the size matters. Is it because it would be important when importing a fabric with a design so the scale would be correct? You imported a solid but am guessing it is just one of those good habits to develop. Am I correct in my thinking? Thanks for the great tutorials.

It's been so long since I used my EQ8 that I can't even name my quilt!! What am I doing wrong that when I type in "Love You to the Moon" (the name of my quilt), I am getting a "Not a valid filename" message?

Figured out that I needed to update my software!
