To keep blocks relatively equal, you will not be able to control the exact number of blocks, but they'll be close to equal in quantity of blocks being used. This is a good use case for when you just want to play with the overall random layout. *** ## YouTube Video {% embed url="" %} How to Randomly Layout Blocks with Relatively Equal Quantities {% endembed %} *** ## Help Guide ### a | Relatively Equal Number of Blocks After creating your quilt blocks, follow these steps to randomly lay out your quilt blocks on your quilt grid. These instructions will give you almost equal numbers of each block in your quilt. 1. Click on the **RANDOMIZE tab** on the left side control panel.

2. Click on the **Blocks** button.

3. The **Block Randomizer panel** will slide out with images of all the blocks you have in your quilt with two hearts next to them.

4. To show you how the Block Randomizer works, we'll keep the hearts at two each - which means that there will roughly be the same number of each block. 1. Click on the **Select All Cells** button at the bottom of the panel. This will randomly place blocks into all the block cells in the quilt.

2. Click on the **checkmark next to Allow duplicates**. Since we only 2 quilt blocks, but 100 block cells, the quilt blocks will need to be used multiple times.

3. Click on the **Apply Blocks Randomly** button.

5. Click on the **x button** (

) at the top right of the panel.

6. Since all the block cells are selected, deselect them by **clicking outside the quilt grid**. 7. You can now see that both versions of the quilt block have been randomly laid out in the quilt grid and that there are relatively equal numbers of each block.
