The Fabric Fisher
 

Using Custom Search

Clicking the Custom Search link shows the Custom Search Dialog:

Custom Search Dialog

You may see a slightly different layout, depending on the size and shape of your screen. You will see:

If there are colors in the fabric that you don't care about, simply uncheck them by clicking on the square color sample. If you change your mind, click again, to re-check that color. You may continue to uncheck colors, if desired, until there are only two remaining.

As you check and uncheck colors, the fabric will update to reflect your changes. When a color is removed from the fabric, it is replaced with the nearest color that is still checked. So, to see a significant change, you may have to also uncheck similar colors.

Custom Search Dialog

The dialog buttons are used as follows:

Search When the fabric shows only the colors that you are interested in, click the Search button, which will find fabrics that are similar to the one you've just customized yourself.
Search Clicking the Reset button restores the colors back to their original state.
Search Clicking the Cancel button closes the Custom Search Dialog, and returns to the original fabric page.

After clicking the Search button, a custom fabric is added to your stash, and the fabric page for your custom fabric is displayed, showing fabrics that are similar to the one you have created.

Custom Fabric Page

Since the custom fabric is added to your stash, you can always come back to it later, or delete it when you no longer need it.
