Has anyone designed a Bargello quilt on Quilt-Pro for Mac please? I'm finding it difficult, to say the least! Any tips very welcome thanks - or it's back to the graph paper!

Here are a few tips I can offer:

-Draw the design using the block design area rather than the Freeform Quilt layout.

-Draw long rectangles the length of the quilt to simulate the strips.

-Use the rotary cutter to cut the strips where you need them to be cut for design purposes.

-If you need to change the cut position on a single strip, select the two portions of the strip and use Effect/Merge to combine the 2 to make 1. Then cut in the new position.

-To select two or more pieces at once, press and hold the shift key on your keyboard and click on the patch to select it.

If you have any specific questions I can answer, please let me know.
