I going on a quilt retreat this weekend! However, they don't have Internet access at the Rapid River Lodge where we will be staying! So no more blog entries until Monday.

Note that all the pictures of the lodge at the above link are all taken in the summer. We have about a 2 ft snow base now and the
weather forecast for this weekend is a high of 10 F with wind chills of -25 F. Even though the ski trail is close by, I think we will just stay inside and quilt!

Today's post is about how to recolor your quilt blocks in MyWebQuilter.com.


Start by selecting the quilt blocks that you think might work for your quilt. Do this on the Choose Quilt Block page.


By each selected block there
will be a "Color Options" link.



This link takes you a page where you see any standard color options (that I created) and offers a link for you to choose you own quilt block colors.



Choosing New custom color option takes you to the quilt block recoloring page. Start by selecting the base quilt block color that you want to change. The selected color is larger than the others. Then use the fabric stash on the left to select a new color. Use search to find colors.



When you are happy with the results, enter a name for your color option and click Save.

If you are logged in, your color option is saved
permanently. If you are not logged in, just create a user id, login and then choose "Save Design Wall" to permanently save your quilt block color options.

Your custom quilt block color options are available for you to select for your quilt. You may rename and/or edit any quilt block color options that you create.



Happy quilting!
