    Today I got caught up. I am making two different quilts. One with Kaffe fabrics and another with scraps left over from a different fat quarter bundle. I'm feeling more comfortable with the project now.

    Comment


      I'm having so much fun. Thank you, Alex! My design wall is pretty full right now so these are just stuck on it with no order.

      I'm stretching my comfort zone with all the colors and I'm loving it.

        This has been such fun, and my accuracy has definitely improved. Not sure about some of these colors, might want to redo some of these!

          Finally, I have figured out how to post. Thanks Beverly. Now, I took pictures of my blocks and their inspiration, emailed them from my phone to the laptop, but I'm having issues getting the laptop to recognize them as a file. Help?

          Comment


            I’m having the same problem. I keep getting a red message telling me to remove single and double quotes from file name.

            Comment


              Here's what's happening today...it changes daily and then hourly. I'll definately be replacing a couple blocks that feel out of place. Then, I want to figure out a border that uses more of the Kaffe prints. Alex, this has been an amazing experience! Thank you!

                Ignore that. Upload a file from your computer, attach and then insert . That will put the photo in the post. If you use Preview you won’t see the photo until you Submit the post.

                  Ok Beverly, I'm not getting anywhere. I can see the photos on my computer. For example one is IMG-3381.jpg That's it's file name. When I put the file name into the box for attachments I keep getting a notice that this is an invalid file. If it's invalid how come I can pull it up but I can't upload it?

                  Comment


                    Lady blue, that I can’t help with. I can select from my computer or IPad with no problem. Maybe someone with more computer skills can answer this. Once you get it figured out, it will seem easy.

                    Oh, my name is Barbara—my sister is named Beverly.

                      Can you imagine which block took be a couple of days instead of a couple of hours? LOL Because I'm doing the 12" format, I could add a few more pieces!

                      I am LOVING all your pictures. I have EQ8 but haven't had time to play with it for this project. THANKS for those who have. It really helps!
