    Thank you for the coloring page. I drew it up in EQ8 and started playing. Since it is so easy to switch out blocks in EQ8
    coloring was not all I did. Here is my first creation. This is all so much fun HelenW

    ​ Quarter page coloring is a little bigger. Barbara could you ask Lynn if she minds my posting this.
    If she mind, please delete or tell me to delete. If she does not mind, I think it being a little bigger
    might help people coloring. HelenW

    Jill B. Thank you for the compliments. I drew it up using Custom Layout.
    I based the blocks on 5 inches since Lynn said that most were that size.
    The custom size layout was set at 80 by 80. I drew up the blocks from
    the photos of the blocks in Lynn Wilder's blog. Then I used a ton of copy
    and paste, and rotates. I set the grid snap for custom at 1/2 inch to make it easy to align the blocks. The center block I
    drew up as a 20 inch block and just dragged into the middle. It takes a
    lot of time, but if you do it over several days it is not hard.Once you have it done
    it is easy to play with color palettes. I get the white line drawing by using Swap Color in the fabrics tab and swap white for all the colors.
