    Default Program question

    Somewhere there is a free program on line that helps you convert a picture to color sections for quilt art. Does anyone have that bookmarked? Can't find my book mark.

    You mean a color palette generator? Here's a list of five.

    Do you mean get a list of colors needed, or convert the picture to a grid so you can duplicate it in patchwork?? I know of some for cross stitch and knitting. You could use one of those and use fabric squares instead.

    Lol which is it???

    a) a color palette generator - will take your photo or art and break it down into color chips, like the kind you get at the paint store.

    b) a mosaic generator - converts the picture to a grid so you can duplicate it
