These things are like potato chips! Here is Lum's block. She's doing a lady's Quilt of Valor. Lum, I love your fabric. Is it vintage?

I can try. How do you normally take pix? Camera then upload to the computer? Cell phone? Some other method?

i usually take with my iPad and upload to my computer.

Today I played with Libster's fabric. In the doubling up I got two of Libster's blocks to make. I tried to make them look as different as possible, with different fabrics. Hope you like them, Libster.

I love them both! Wow! Home run for you. The grays are spot on for what I had in mind. Thank you for perfect blocks. These blocks are for my oldest DD for one of her Christmas gifts.

I went to the App Store & downloaded an app called Image Sizing for free.

Love the block. I have no idea the age of the fabric, it came from my mom's stash. There are no markings on either salvage, the print runs from edge to edge.

Then whatever program you use in your computer to manage and view photos should have an "edit" feature. It should allow you to shrink photos, crop them, rotate them, etc. I have Windows and use Paint. It's a multi-step process but it's easy. You'll need to explore that program. Personally, I'd google how to do it. Hope that helps.
