IT took me a while to figure out the br, tr etc. too. LOL. I don't think there are any dumb questions. I love how everyone is doing different colors and things. This is so much fun.

Also, I love that Chocolate DJ in the gallery of DJ's on this Quilt Board. I've heard comments that Kona solids are a bit of a thicker fabric that the regular quilting fabric. Does anyone have an a suggestion for a good solid fabric I could use for the chocolate areas? I don't have experience with buying solid fabrics.

Thanks all! I am looking forward to being with you in the coming year!
I don't think I found the gallery of DJs. I did find one chocolate DJ by searching from the box that's to the right of the Help tab. Can anyone direct me to the right place?
Thanks!
