TheQuiltingBoard Block of the Month, 2013
#71
Difergiem I did too until....On the top right of your screen, when you're in your email or on the site, right under the red X for closing it out, click on the little "nut" object next to the star, then go to the line that says file, click on it and hit print. This is where you find the file in new windows, but mine printed right out with no problem, pics and all. Try it and let me know. If you need to PM me that's okay. Hope this helps.

I have never "subscribed" before. I would like to this year. Is there anyone that can just walk us through the process, step by step? I am easily "foiled" when it comes to choosing what to actually fill out. If not, its OK, it just seems daunting to my brain :0 )
Our theme this year is "Yes, We Can!"
The idea is to select blocks that will challenge us to learn something new.
A block will be posted on the 1st of each month.
Sulabug has already selected a lovely block for us to kick off 2013.
That block will be announced on 1 Jan 13.
I have one picked out for 1 Feb 13.
If anybody would like to volunteer to select blocks in the following months, please send me a PM.
1. All registered and active members of the board are eligible to request a spot on a "pickers' list".
2. Pickers will be responsible for either a link to existing directions for a block, or for providing directions for the block they've chosen. We all have different skill levels and technique preferences.
When choosing a block, please check copyrights and terms of use set forth by the authors of the instructions. Pickers are strongly encouraged to pick only blocks from the Public Domain and instructions that do not place strict or severe limits on what we can do with the blocks we make using those instructions.
As individual quilters, WE are responsible for making sure we read, understand, and comply with those copyright/terms of use statements.
3. Anyone who sees the list and likes the blocks is invited to make them. However, only registered members of the board will be able to post pictures of the blocks they've made.
4. If a posted block doesn't interest you, feel free to skip it.
5. There will be two threads for each block. Both of them will be in the BOM section of the board. One thread for directions and discussion, and the other thread for pictures of the finished blocks. For the sake of keeping things sane all other threads will be moved or deleted.
When posting a new BOM, please make sure to use the appropriate titles, such as:
"October 1, 2007 - Drunkard's Path - Directions & Discussion"
and
"October 1, 2007 - Drunkard's Path - Photos"
5. Pick and make any blocks you like from any lists you like. No matter how long ago a block was picked, you are still invited to post pictures when you make one. Just make sure to post your pics in the pictures thread for that block.
6. Again - You don't have to be a registered member or on the lists to play along. The lists simply tell us which registered members have volunteered to take a turn selecting a block. Any registered board member can volunteer for a turn. Simply send a PM to PatriceJ, who will update the list.
6. Our Block of the Month activities are NOT swaps.
7. Have fun! Quilting is fun and Quilter's Rock!!!!!

Very excited to do this! I have been away from the forums here for several years because I have been focused on other things (real life gets in the way of quilting). I am hoping that this gets me back into the swing of things.
