Are these too close in value to each other? Can I use the blues and violets in place of red and orange? I will need to order something for the “grey” because I don’t have enough of anything to use....and I have enough white or cream for neutrals.
Thanks for any guidance!

Here is what I do to post pictures:1. Write message
2. Click "Go Advanced"
3. In the box labeled Additional Options click "Manage Attachments"
4. Click "Browse" and locate your photo wherever you saved it on your computer.
5. Find the photo you wish to post click save and then upload. ***
This seems to be where folks stumble. The little box with the "Browse" button needs to be expanded so you can see the "Upload" button. It is on the far right and hidden until you expand the box.
6. Preview Post and make changes if you wish or add an additional photo.
7. Click "Submit Reply".
**** I save my photos in a quilt photos file by year, but I also keep a second copy in a file where the photos have been resized to "medium". It this format will allow you to post to the QB. It seems there are multiple ways to do this and it all depends on your computer and software preferences. I
Hope this helps but keep in mind that each computer or device is just a little bit different. Let the folks here know if this doesn't work for you. Someone surely can help.

Got clue 2 sewn this morning, now on to trimming! I'm taking the rest of the week and Monday off, so will have plenty of time for sewing. DH wants to go Christmas shopping today, he finally decided what he wants for Christmas! We will be stopping at my favorite sewing machine dealer, so maybe I'll find something fun too. I buy most of my embroidery supplies from them. Might stop off at a farbric store or two, but I'm already overloaded with Christmas fabric so don't need the temptation.
