    Barbara Black, Is the forum working, I can't seem to find the place where you start a topic or just post to a category. Sure
    will be fun to explore all the new parts of this website. Sure has taken a lot of work for The Quilt Show, but it is probably
    the best quilting website in the Whole Wide World. HelenW

      HelenW, you're right. Earlier this morning I thought I saw a button for creating a new topic, but now I don't. Maybe I was still dreaming since I was on my first cup of coffee. I also saw this morning where you could add a signature to your post. Adding it is still available, but now it doesn't appear in the posts. I'm guessing they are still working on the site. Glad it's back up, however! ~Carole

        Hi Carole. I too am glad it is back up. I have been moving ahead on my variation of Color My World. I will try to post a picture later today. Probably will be a learning curve to figure out how everything works. HelenW

            LOVE the bicycle fabric! Perfect for this background. I have some but never thought to use it.

          This was easier than I expected. I used scraps incase I messed up. Now I can use it in a future project
