    JoJo, in answer to your suggestion about posting, I am presently having trouble downloading but hope to get that fixed soon. Will send pic as soon as I can. Thanks for your interest. I agree with others that there is something calming about handwork. Sue

    Sewjoyce. My mother-in-law had a vest made out of yo yo's that she bought at a craft show. It was gorgeous. I should have examined it closer but they were attached onto the fabric and it was just a normal vest pattern; of course, the material was plain behind the yo yo's.

    Could some computer savvy person out there talk me through how to include a picture on these posts? Or, tell me where to go on this Board to get the directions?

    I believe if you click on main forum and then on pictures the first post there walks you through posting a picture. :lol:

    Elsie: I keep seeing about a Dear Jane quilt. Is that a certain kind of block? Don't mean to sound "dumb." I looked up Dear Jane on the Internet but did not know if it was just one kind of block. Sue

    This was a picture I took of the GFG quilt at a show in Hampton, VA. This is the kind of border I was describing that I would like to use on my quilt.

    Thanks to Shemjo I actually found out how to post a picture. That is all for now until I get our digital camera unloaded. Thanks for your help and interest, especially you, Shemjo, for teaching me to post a picture.
