The '<mark style="color:blue;">**Scale to Fit**</mark>' button is a great for quickly:

* Resizing a patchwork piece to the fit into the block
* Reshaping a patchwork shape to fit the block
* Ensuring the pieces fit together without any warping of the shape

### <mark style="color:blue;">How to Use the Button</mark>

Open the [*Block Editor*](/welcome-to-prequilt/about-this-help-guide/glossary.md#block-editor) by either editing an existing block or creating a new block by clicking on 'Make Custom Block'.

1. Change the finished block measurements to your block's dimensions:

2. Click on the shape that you're using. It will appear inside the block grid.

3. Click on the '<mark style="color:blue;">**Scale to Fit**</mark>' button. The shape will expand to fit snuggly inside the block size.
