    I am not sure if it is my computer or the web, but every time I try to upload a pic, the whole screen goes white...the response box I am used to seeing is gone...Still trying to show the lone star top..Ended up not doing any hand quilting tonight..My son and his wife stopped by with the 6 kids for about an hour this afternoon, and then I moved on the the Bow Tucks bags for my little 5 yr old twin granddaughters. Tomorrow it will only take me about an hour to finish them both..May start a little quilting tonight..but really dog tired!!

    Could be that your picture is too large, I've had trouble uploading full size photos. I open them up in Paint and reduce the size by half and save again. Then it usually works ok to upload.

    Still not uploading pics...When I click on the icon to add a picture, the selection box comes up, but instead of seeing the message board behind it, it all goes white......I planned on getting to bed a few hours ago, and get back to work again in the morning...of course I got hung up in the hand quilting, so I am just putting it down now and try to get some sleep...maybe tomorrow the picture uploader will work for me...Have a good night all

    Time to get up everyone!! I am ready for day 2~!. Will be spending this morning finishing the 2 Bow Tucks, and looking for patterns for the needle case and pincushion exchange..If I have what I need I may begin working on those- or back to the hand quilting!

    One down - finished the friendship quilt (YAY!!) - it's a jelly roll pattern by Pam & Nicky Lintott - thought it needed something else so I added the flower. FMQ on my home machine.

    My sewing weekend is going really well, but my memory to take photos of the finished projects is not so good. I finished 2 quilts so far this weekend. Here is one, before I added the sashings. Off in a few minutes for another day of sewing with friends.

    Good morning everyone! I would have been here sooner, but it takes so much time to read all my e-mails. I still have to eat breakfast and get dressed. Gotta get moving before Indy 500 starts. Will sew on some blocks while watching the race. I keep a small sewing area in my bedroom where my only TV is, so I can sew and watch TV at the same time. The dog is then happy that I am near her. I'll try to get pics of the quilts I finished yesterday.
