Tips for Using Quilt Ink for the Hey Betty Boo QAL

Are you ready to start playing with fabrics in preparation for the Hey Betty Boo Quilt Along? Let's get started with Quilt Ink! I find it's much easier to use Quilt Ink on a laptop | computer than it is on a phone or tablet. It can be done on small devices but the palette buttons are pretty small on a phone and I love the option to save a PDF of my fabric choices via a laptop.
