Sounds like me a couple of weeks ago.I couldn't get anything to come up,just here on the board but couldn't get the pictures to load.Try turning off your computer unplug your internet cord from your computer,plug it back in then turn on your computer.

I always cut my batting bigger than the quilt top, and cut my backing bigger than the batting. Then I fold up (twice) the excess backing over the batting and onto the quilt edges and hand-baste with long running stitches to enclose the whole quilt so I get no batting lint or thread ravels from the edges of the fabrics. Then I can quilt from the center out without a problem and only open up the basted edges to quilt when I get that far.
I don't do machine quilting except for SID, so I don't know if this procedure would work for those of you who do, but it works for me. Just a thought which might be useful to some of you.
