For an **appliquéd Orange Peel**, construct your block as you would sew it - with a larger background fabric and a smaller orange peel shape on top.&#x20;

1. Click on the <mark style="color:blue;">**BLOCKS tab**</mark> on the left side control panel.

   <div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/68Sy8IGIv0pf3slIgZAs" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

   <div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/m996ukpqAnSaJrChXBS5" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>
3. The **Block Editor panel** will slide out and overtake your screen. My block is set to 12" x 12" finished, but it doesn't matter, the next steps will work for all sized blocks.
4. Set your grid guidelines by changing the number for the horizontal and vertical units.

   * I'll set my gridlines to 8 horizontal and 8 vertical units. I want my Orange Peel to be centered in each of the block units.

5. Click on the <mark style="color:blue;">**square shape**</mark> (<img src="/files/hy2ZsHmPdS74SBFprTv2" alt="" data-size="line">) from the central control panel. It will be our background fabric behind the circle.

6. <mark style="color:blue;">**Move**</mark> the new square block unit so it is in the top left corner of the quilt block.

7. To manipulate the square to enlarge it, <mark style="color:blue;">**grab**</mark> the square on one of the corners of the square and <mark style="color:blue;">**drag**</mark> it until the square fills the height and width of 4 grid spaces.&#x20;

   * Note: If the snap to grid is turned on (default) then the shape will automatically fill the grid space.

9. Click on the <mark style="color:blue;">**Link button**</mark> for a different fabric link (so that there are now 2 different fabrics being used). In this example, I am using Fabric Link B.

   <figure><img src="/files/dKaOsegRHhbEaUIUKuyS" alt=""><figcaption><p>Circle now using Fabric Link B</p></figcaption></figure>
10. <mark style="color:blue;">**Move**</mark> the orange peel piece into the center top left right corner of the square.

11. &#x20;To manipulate the orange peel to enlarge it, <mark style="color:blue;">**grab**</mark> the square on the bottom right corner of the bounding box around the orange peel and <mark style="color:blue;">**drag**</mark> it until the bottom right corner of the orange peel fills the height and width of 2 grid spaces.

    <div><figure><img src="/files/z2f3su2Zreh2arAapfTp" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure> <figure><img src="/files/KYtT1syEeCuHvXjqUhCW" alt=""><figcaption><p>1 x Appliquéd Orange Peel block unit</p></figcaption></figure></div>
12. <mark style="color:blue;">**Clone, rotate**</mark> and <mark style="color:blue;">**move**</mark> 3 more Orange Peel block units to complete the quilt block. If you'd like, you can add and use additional Fabric Links.
