    Good morning everyone! It’s raining here in Northern Ontario & the snow is finally gone! Woohoo! Just wanted to offer some suggestions re the size of your pics. If using an iPad, consider “cropping” your picture. You can also use a program such as Paint, Paint Shop etc to resize. I have to admit I cheat! Lol I take the pic with my phone, then email it to myself. Your phone will then ask you how big you want the file - small, med, large. I usually choose medium. When you open that email, right click on the pic & save. Voila! Now post it for all of us to see! Hope this helps!
    will try to post a pic of my work in progress later today.

    Preview of my runner showing possible red backing or the yellow. Turquoise background is much brighter, as are the rest of the colors. Haven't decided on flower centers yet.....probably not round. I like it so far.

    Here is a preview of fabrics I picked out for floral theme. I’m still hoping I can get it done by deadline. I picked out a Bonnie Hunter pattern to use.

    Love your florals Beverly and Bonnie Hunter is a perfect choice to get a pattern for them. Anxious to see what they will become.

    Little hexy flowers are charming Linny. How about buttons for the centers?

    I think buttons might be cute too. May look for some that are really flat.

    Buttons would be cute or maybe snaps or studs.... Runner is very cute so far. What a cute puppy. I thought at first it was eating a ice cream cone. lol.

    Buttons or studs would look cute. I thought beads also. We have a bead shop near us that has some super interesting beads.

    Beads are another good idea I had not thought of till now. We have a great bead shop in town where I can check things out. Thanks for giving me some options.
    Great block Sue. Love the blues blend.
