In the grey box where you post or reply there is a square w/ a tree in it that is where you click to add a pic. another box will pop up and you use it to select the image you want to upload.

the pink and orange is the fabric my daughter chose, and I was thinking TOT or solids of the orange and pink.

I could use a little help. This is the first time using a site like this and I can not get the photo to load.

I tried that several times and I keep getting the message that the image failed to load. I read that we can only load files of a certain size, but I am so challenged I don’t know how to tell how large the file is, or how to change it.

That usually works for me but when it is being cranky I upload it to FB then click on it and "copy" it there and "paste" it here.

Changing the picture size is for Janice so she can easily copy it to the boom album, it isn't a QB requirement, so should upload no matter the file size just take longer w/ a bigger file.

My pics only upload if I reduce the size quite a bit. Otherwise they 'fail to upload'. I left click on my picture and select "open with", and then choose "paint". In paint I choose "home" at the top, and then "resize". Then I type 25 in the 'horizontal' box, changing the size from 100. (All the other boxes will automatically change to 25 too.) Then I close out and hit "save" when it asks me if I want to save it.

Then, and only then, are my photos ready to be uploaded on the QB. I take photos with my IPhone and they come out huge. They always have to be reduced to just 25% of their IPhone size.

Good luck!

Finally got a pic snapped for you! It's only a top at this stage... Easy pattern that goes together really quick!

My daughter’s choice, at last.
It took me so long to figure this one out, I think I’ll just skip sharing the super cute cat batik fabric that I just had to get as well.

That’s a very cool fabric, smglover! Is it Kaffe Fassett? Rowan? It will be fun to work with. Something modern, hmmmm.....

Sewbiz it’s Kaffe Fassett. I’ve never used any of his before, wild and outside my comfort zone. I’m a cool color person, so this fabric is wrong for me on many levels, especially since I think orange, pink and yellow would work well. My daughter loves it though. I’m all about batik!

I love your quilt. I’ve seen this pattern before and thought it would be a lot simpler than it looks. So versatile.
