    Meeting Janet Stone at MQX

    Went to the Midwest MQX in Springfield, Illinois yesterday. Saw her quilts and got to meet her. Took some photos don't know how tp post them to this site. She quilted all her quilts on her Janome 6600.
    Her labels are unique and beautiful, also took some photos. Got to see our BOM again. First saw it in Houston.

    She is a lovely person and her quilts are outstanding. I live in the St. Louis suburbs so it was just about a 2 hour drive. Janet

      How great Janet. If you go to 'Post Reply' and click on it you will get a box to write in - which you know about already - and below that if you scroll down a bit you will see 'upload attachment'. If you click on that it gives you an option to choose a photo from your desktop, photos etc. You choose a photo and it gives you prompts to finish the upload. You can attach up to three photos with every 'post'. I hope you can figure it out as I would love to see the photos.

                    Hope someone from TQS took better photos. I took these with my iPad mini.
                    This last one is the Charm quilt. The back of that quilt is spectacular.
