quiltingshorttimer, your photos may be too big to load. Right click on the photo and then scroll down to "resize" and click, then click on "small". That's what I have to do with most all of my photos. Hope you can get it to work. Would love to see your pics.
Dottymo, those patchy animals are too cute. Obviously they are fused, but how will you do the edges? Raw edge applique, or satin stitch?
Thanks for the name of your pattern, Raggiemom.
