Hi! I think you’re doing it right. You just say “color a” or whatever you named it under materials. In my experience it doesn’t show up in your view when you’re editing it, but it’ll show up for others when they open up the pattern :)

That should work, but when you are doing the materials you can change it from ‘color a’ to whatever you want. If you call the color ‘red’, then in the patterns whenever you say ‘red’ that text will turn red.
Does that make sense?
Also if this is solved you should click the ‘solution’ button on ArielC’s first post.
