    Default My first start to finish quilt

    This is my first quilt from start to finish with a little help from my big brother "Wesing". I am really happy with it.

    Welcome from Texas! We would love to see a picture of your first quilt. I think you will like this quilting board as it's full of helpful quilters & full of encouragement.

    Welcome aboard! Posting pictures here can be harder than making a quilt! We do have some good help stuff here:
    https://www.quiltingboard.com/qb-help-center-f27/
    The boards changed formats earlier this year and some people are still having problems, you are by far not the only one!

    It took me a surprisingly long time to figure out once I uploaded the pictures, I had to extend that box way out to the right to get to the needed button. My other problem is that I have an old school digital camera and my file sizes are always too large, camera is old and it's software isn't all that great either, so I go to this site to reduce my file size:
    https://www.reduceimages.com/
    I just follow their prompts and defaults. it's like 2-3 clicks.

    Even if your picture is less than what they say is the maximum, I think that is for multiple images. Individual images/files still need to be on the small side.

    Thank you Iceblossom, I thought I had attached the quilts but apparently I didn't. I will try your suggestions.

    Yeah the first one is always the hardest. The quilting world is now so much better, can't wait to see more from you.

    So glad to see it’s posted! I have to say I’m very pleased that my sister is infected with the quilting bug. She did an excellent job on the construction and the quilting on this quilt.

    There is no cure once infected either. Great work on your first start to finish quilt.
