    i think we should all set up a flicker thing for sure. i'm going to PM admin when the time draws near and ask him how he wants this dealt with because i've seen him say many times that we just can't post too many quilt pics and WIP pics.

    maybe he'd like to have a perm record on the forum for future users - but either way we all need to set up a "flicker" type of account for our janes.
    Where do we find out how to do that? Am I driving you nutso yet?

    Kelly, that will be great! PP and I seem to get along ok. I think I'll be spending more time on triangles than most of the blocks.
    i'm going to transfer what ever triangles i can into PP but they aren't as flexible as the blocks are.
    Klue you are amazing!

    I love this fabric!!! Is this an applique block? Greta job.
