Color in a block photo to make a fabric on iPhone and iPad

Color In a Fabric, the Pattern Painter, fills each piece of a quilt or block photo with the color you tap, then saves the picture as a new fabric for your quilts.

How to do it

  1. In Studio, open Fabrics, tap + and choose Color In a Fabric.
  2. Tap Choose Photo, Take Photo or Choose from My Fabrics. A picture with clear outlines works best.
  3. Pick a color, then tap each piece of the picture to fill it. The colors you use gather under Your Colors.
  4. If a fill spills past a seam or stops short, tap Undo and move How Far the Color Spreads toward Less or More.
  5. Tap Next to save it as a new fabric.
