Tech Know Quilters - Introduction to PolyDraw in EQ8
Similar to EasyDraw, PolyDraw creates pieced blocks. However the difference stops there. Within PolyDraw you will draw complete patches rather than a series of intersecting lines and arcs. You have the option of choosing between six different grid styles to help guide your block design.
One of additional pluses of PolyDraw is that you are not limited to square and rectangular blocks, but can define not only the patches but the block shape as well. As a result, these blocks are very conducive to pairing with a Custom Set layout within Electric Quilt.
