    i haven't found a way to recolor the quilt with a global change. each block has to be changed section by section.

    it would take me a couple of weeks to color the entire quilt the way you'd like to.

    i think if you have EQ6 you might be able to do this but i'm not sure. i have EQ5 and its not able to communicate with DJ.

    Ahhhhh..... of course... because each block is different! It's probably the same in EQ6.

    Never mind! :-)

    I'll have to be brave and make a decision. LOL

    yes, if you set up a jane quilt all with the same block you could make global color changes but since everything is different you have to color section by section of each block.

    it took me about 2.5 weeks to color my jane in the software. you should have your package soon and maybe have enough time to color it before we start.

    Dj doesn't come with the EQ swap tool? It is two arrows one going left and one above that going right. I would have thought that would be part of your tools but as I haven't seen the DJ software I wouldn't know. Just a thought.

    Yeah... I was playing around in EQ with a blank setting, just working out the diamond pattern, and it only took about two minutes. But I forgot that all the blocks are different.

    I think I might just bite the bullet and do black and white. And blue and green for the sashing. I really love the one with the Storm at Sea setting.

    I would imagine it's the same tool, but because all the blocks are different colours, you'd still have to do each one separately.
