If you can on your picture program go to edit and crop it to make it smaller.

Thanks.

Hey Bev, perhaps you made them so small that we just can't see them. :lol: Can't wait to see your work.

By the way, I love the avatar.

I tried with no luck. The picture uploaded but then nothing happened when I hit submit. My message didn't even go forward without the pictures. I'll keep trying. What size should I be shooting for???
When I put the jpeg into the "attach files" nothing is able to be sent to the page. Not even what I write. They're in bytes. Isn't that smaller than a 1MB? I am so computer illiterate!! I even tried sending just one. Same problem. I don't even know if this will go through. BUT I will keep trying. That's sort of what quilting is all about, too.

Thank you ladies! I asked the bride's future Mother-In-Law (my sister-in-law) what the bride's favorite colors were. Her reply? NEUTRALS. Neutrals? How on earth am I supposed to make something with neutrals. Joyce thought a bit and said she liked some blues and maybe purple. So the front is for her. My preference is the back, which I admit I did for me, not really loving the front. Also, I had never tried hand applique before, so I figured, learn a new skill and make something bland into something attractive. Win win. I just hope the bride likes it as much as you do!!!!
Thanks again.
