Thank you SBG. I sure wish I still had my iPhone. Frustrating issues with the "find my phone app" made it necessary to get a Samsung Galaxy. I dislike this platform & now the QB doesnt give an option to upload photos from this phone.

Sure glad I stumbled upon this response. I have a Samsung Galaxy tablet that I use a lot in addition to the dinosaur desk top computer. I have found I can't upload photos nor post a reply using the Samsung tablet. I have to forward pics to my email account, fire up the desk top computer and post from there - so annoying to say the least.

Technology can sure be frustrating! :D

Teen - that is a lot of work but so awesome, you placed all the squares perfectly!

Watson that is great, are you using your DSM? I have never tried ruler work is it hard?

Nothing new quilted for me, with the weird weather I just want to sit and read. Our local yarn shop closed today and sent a news letter saying happy January 145th. 9+ inches of snow in April makes me want to watch a movie and have a glass of wine. I'm off work tomorrow so maybe I'll clean the sewing room and find something to work on. I know I have projects to finish.

Happy sewing everyone!

Thank you, Dedemac!! And, enjoy the snuggle weather. Your plan sounds so nice...

Dedemac: The weather was definitely weird today! April in MN is all I can say. LOL!

Conchalea: Congratulations on finishing your daughter's UFO! Bless your heart for taking the time to unstitch and resew.

I sometimes have trouble with my iPhone not allowing me to reply. I have found that sometimes I logged out accidently or I am not in the web version which I have found on the bottom of the thread pages. I hope you get things figured out so we can see pictures.

Dedemac, I am using a midarm, but you can easily do ruler work with a domestic. I did for along time before I got my Tiara.
You just have to be sure to get the right size of rulers for your machine. Any dealer should be able to tell you which size you need. I would suggest the Westalee Starter Kit for a place to start. It has the foot and my favourite ruler in it, which is a straight edge on one side and an arc on the other.

Connie, thanks for the tip on using web version. I scrolled down & sure e ought, it said 'full site' so I wasn't on the web version! I'm not sure why it changed on me, but I try the photo again. Nope. Photo is too large & I dont seem able to resize on the phone. I'll have to do it from my computer.

Conchalea: I’m glad you found the full site version. I downloaded a free app for resizing photos on my iPhone.

I gave the quilt to my friend today. She got teary-eyed over it. She's been in the hospital for 10 days, had to have emergency surgery, plus a follow-up surgery. It's been a long haul for her & her family, so I was glad to brighten her day a little.
