Rff1010: Cute quilt and backing. Congratulations on completing it.

I've gotten off track with my own UFO, but I'm quilting a vintage/antique top 80" x 80" log cabin with mitred triple border. This certainly counts as someone else's UFO! (Top was at the very bottom of an old box that was donated to our church rummage sale. Plan is to finish it and give back to the couple donating the box.)

I think taking on someone else's UFO and finishing it counts as a finish for you. Why not?

Good afternoon everyone,
Yes, WMUTeach, you have helped a lot of us with the posting of the pix before. And thanks for doing it one more time. But, I like Sewbizgirl, am experiencing the same dilemma, transferring from the phone to the laptop. I was able to do that with my 'Note 3' but they purchased me a 'Note 8'. and I haven't made the transition yet. I know I am a little slow with the technology and I am a hands on learner. Some day one of those 'millennium' grand children will take me through this. Thanks again for the help I very much appreciate it

Stay safe

It's a nearly brand new phone.

Cute quilt, Rff! The back is fun too.

Sewbiz & Cherry..try emailing yourself the pictures from mobile and download to computer from your email. I have an IPad and have had to be a bit more creative on posting pics.

rff...fantastic finish!! Congrats!

Oh, now I understand! What I do is email the photo to myself from my phone and open it on my computer, save and resize and save again. Then it is ready for the QB!.

QuiltMom2: That’s very nice of you to finish it and then give it back to the people that gave you the box.

Teen: I use my IPad to directly load a picture. I first resize it with an app, write my note on QB, and then I push Go Advanced. Paper clip is next and I choose my picture and push upload (I think that’s the word). I then close out the window by pushing the button in the word box.

Sounds complicated but it really is slick.

This is exactly the way I do it also.

Thanks everyone for your assistance on loading the pix. I'm really not trying to be difficult, but if I don't actually see it I do not understand it. Such a 'hard-head.' My phone is g-mail friendly and my laptop is yahoo friendly and I can't figure how to email to the other. It's like there is no connection (in my head).
Thanks for the help

Stay safe

Cherry, try emailing from your phone gmail address to yourself at your yahoo address, then pick up that email from your computer.
