I am using a friends computer that is windows 8 and I am not pleased with it. Hard to get around.

Will post an update later, let's say look for a note from me about 11:00. Have a great Saturday.

islandwiz. very pretty, and will work well.

Island's busy print will work well because the scale is small and all colors will look good.

Just got the call from Best Buy, on my way to pick up the beast, hopefully will post clue 2 in a couple house.

Nope, not too late - here, let me get the door for you. Come on back to the club car and join me for a coffee. Where are you from?

Oh, I'm a little glad there is a delay in posting Clue 2. I've been working on mystery quilt our quilt guild is doing. Had to solve a problem I was having with the instructions, but all is well now, and I have two more blocks to assemble.

For those of you struggling with Win 8, all I can say is "Why did you downgrade?". According to DH, Win 8 is a dog.

If you must use it, Google on "Classic Shell" and you'll find a free app you can use to get your desktop back as well as the Start menu.

Really?! LOL that is the best news I've heard all day. I'm using Windows 8, but I sure miss my XP.

Don't worry Judy, we'll be here stuffing our faces in the club car and I'll bring along Stitchopoly for some gaming!


Edited to add: I just installed Classic Shell to get my Start Menu back. It was pretty easy and quick, thanks so much again for that tip!!

Oh, good! You are in luck Paulswalia! I do drink Coffee! I'm from Danville, 15 miles west of Burlington in Southeast Iowa. I will be watching for the 2nd clue. I don't have a Digital Camera to post a Picture of my Fabric, but I choose Fall Batiks that are, Orange, Orange with Pumpkins. and Purples.
