    bonomo, There are others feeling your same frustration. Maybe you should go to the Help section and fill out a customer ticket
    giving them all your problems. Let them trouble shoot it for you. I did and it took a month, but now I can post pictures again. They
    might be a little overwhelmed with the forum issues but they are working thru them. Hang in there. HelenW

        Happy 4th of July. I added a couple flags to my pick up trucks. USA flag and State of Idaho. A lot of it
        is not fused down yet. Playing around. The brown dirt road leads to the country in my quilt. Sure having fun.
        Auditioning ideas for the border. My Color My World is 60 percent size and made mostly of flannel. HelenW

          Barbara Black Buildings 1 and 2 are ready, waiting for August and especially for the sizes of the sky scrapers because I want to personalize them. And I would like to use all 4 sides of my house instead of the small houses in the city. Will you give us theese sizes allthough?

            July finished…and ready for August! The buildings are so much fun and seem to go more quickly than the houses. Thanks Barbara and Wendy for the excellent instructions. Uploading the files has been quite a challenge, but at least I can post them again. Thanks website techs!

            Hey Bonomo...I replied to your previous trouble ticket on June 30th with regards to uploading pics. Yes, the developers have definitely had their hands full with getting pics to upload,(1 of many little issues in the forum, but they are getting them fixed bit x bit!), but I see you DID get your pic uploaded here. Are you still having pic upload issues? Please respond to the help ticket from the 30th so I can work through these issues with you or just open a new one like Helen W mentioned. Thanks!

              Carole B, Thanks for the compliment. Wish I had a great idea in mind on how to quilt it, but so far I don't. It does not lend itself to
              the traditional type of quilting, or an edge to edge all over design. Hopefully, by the time I get it ready to quilt, an idea will come to me.
              If anyone out there wants to throw out some suggestions. Please do. HelenW

                Carole B, I am thinking about another ring, so I can fill the 4 corners. The ring won't be this wide, more like the ones in the pattern
                I was just trying to get close to the diameter I would need. I am thinking little wildlife scenes. The deer in the upper right would
                be used in one corner. Just filling up the spaces.I would probably put a inner border of about 2 inches between the square and the outside border so the appliqués would not
                be too close. Won' t know if I like it until I make the pieces and audition it. HelenW

                  Happy to have finished my tall Buildings 2 in record time. One thing that fueled the process was not cutting the windows ndividually. I just cut a longer strip the right width and used that - cutting it away and using the same strip over and over. Streamlined the process quite a bit.
