Photo Library

The Photo Library makes it easy to add your scanned photos to a block or quilt.

What is the Photo Library?

The photo library stores your scanned photos. The Perfect Quilt photo library includes a few sample photos to get you started. To scan photos, see the Scanning Wizard. The photos that you scan can be placed in "My Library"/photos.

To Open the Photo Library

To open the Photo Library, click on the Photo Library button in the Toolbar. Click on "My Library/Photos" to see any photos that you have scanned.

1. Click on the Design Wall. Perfect Quilt will place the photo on the quilt block. You can move the photo to place it where you want on the quilt block. You can also resize, flip and rotate the photo.

Adding a Photo to a Quilt for Memory Quilts

You can add a photo directly to a quilt. Just click on a photo in the photo library and click on the quilt where you want the photo to go. The photo will replace the block in the quilt. If you want to have a photo be in the center of a block, create and save the block first and then add it to a quilt.
