# The Pattern Importer Block

If you have a pattern on one site and need to transfer it to another, there's a Pattern Importer block available that'll automatically download any remote images. This includes any background images.

This can allow you to transfer guest posts from site to site. Or bring a production pattern down locally, along with the images.

The Pattern Importer block also natively integrates with the popular layout builder [GenerateBlocks](https://wordpress.org/plugins/generateblocks/) (freemium).
