Rhonda, I don't know if you said this earlier or not but if you want the same block in the whole quilt hold your control key down and set your block and it will fill in the whole quilt. Then you can turn them.

Thank you so much, my mental block seems to be going away and things make a lot more sense.

Thanks for posting - I was looking for this answer

Finally got a minute to do the lesson, want to be ready for tomorrow! Thanks so much for sharing these tutorials with us all. One thing I find, if I remember to save things to the sketchbook as I go along then it's easier for me.

Rhonda,
Thank you for doing this. I have EQ7 and thought I followed all of your steps but don't get any dots in my blocks so I can't draw the lines like you're doing. What have I missed? Thank you!

Find Worktable in the top tool bar
click on worktable
Click on Block
Click on Drawing Board Setup
Click on Snap Grid
You will see up on the top right a place to indicate your dots.
Choose to click on large dots if you want to. It makes them easier to see.
The dots are just very very faint otherwise. They won't show in any quilt blocks
then save it.

That should help.

Thank you for being so kind to post your lessons...
Can you provide Week one and two in PDF? I am having trouble copying these instructions.
Thanks

Each one is posted at the end of the lesson.

I was doing fine until I got to the point of changing colors. I don't have anything at the bottom of the screen that says "colors". I'm determined to learn this program and so appreciative of Rhonda's hard work.
