Now here's
some fun!
When you're
buying fabric in a real quilt shop, the chances are you're carrying around your
fabric selections,
and holding them against other fabrics - assessing them for suitability.
Now you can
do that online with our "mosaic builder"!
Here's
how it works:
-
Firstly,
your browser must be Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher - other browsers
won't work,
but you can try - it won't do any harm
-
Place
any swatches you want to play with in your basket in
the usual way
Of course, you don't need to buy anything.
- you could do that now - then come back here by clicking MOSAIC on
the departments menu
-
Once
your basket contains the swatches you need, just click the big blue
link lower down this page
Once you're
in the Mosaic Builder, here's what to do:
-
You'll
see all of the swatches from your basket in a new browser window
-
You
can use your mouse to arrange your swatches on the screen
- press your left button down to "pick up a swatch" them
move your mouse, then let the button go
- you can do this as much as you like
-
This
process can allow you to explore your creative ideas and assess fabrics
for suitability
-
You
can overlap swatches, to have them to approximate your design ideas
-
If
a swatch is behind another, you can bring it to the front by clicking
on it
-
To
add more fabrics, just put more in your basket - then go to the
Mosaic builder
This is a
