EQ8 - Only Edit Images Once

Previously, I posted about editing fabric swatches in EQ8. If you missed that post, you can find it here. You might be thinking that's great and all, but those edited fabrics are only in whatever project I was working on. Do I have to edit them again if I want to use those same fabrics in another project?  

Luckily, the answer is no! Today I am going to give you a quick tip on how to get edited fabric swatches from one project into another. Let's get started!

Friday Fabric Refresh - Sugar Twist

Happy Friday!  Earlier this week, I shared the pillow I made using the block from my Sugar Twist quilt that is in the Best of Moda Bake Shop book.  I decided that would make this week the perfect opportunity to feature Sugar Twist for Friday Fabric Refresh!

 

The original quilt from the book is shown above and features Sugarcreek by Corey Yoder.  Corey always has gorgeous fabric, but of course it's always fun to see how quilts look in other fabrics!
