    Default clues for my sps

    top three hints for my secret pals:
    1. one package is going east of me with an added zip code of 14
    2. one package is going west of me with an added zip code of 22
    3. one package is going north (or maybe it's northeast) of me with an added zip code of 16.
    i hope my addition is correct because i totally forgot i gave away my calculator.

    p.s. oops i almost forgot to mention that i am directionally challenged too.

    Bummer. Not me, my zipcode adds up to 25. But I do love Totes, Fabric, Chocolate, sewing machines, furbabies and beverages.

    I got a great swap package from Rosemary AKA Ladybug. She made me the cutest table runner, a tissue holder and scissor holder with folding scissors inside, so cute. I love handmade things and she really did a beautiful job on them. I got gorgeous batiks. My next quilt will be batiks so I was excited to see those fabrics. I got sewing notions, lotion, a travel sewing kit, emery boards and a great bag pattern. There were also 2 packages of doggie treats that my babies knew were in the envelope before I did. Those are long gone LOL. I really enjoyed opening my package and oohing and ahh-ing over everything. Thank you Ladybug!

    OK!!! i have totally been given a whopping headache trying to figure out how to post pics. I have been at it all day. I got an awesome package and can't post it. This is so frustrating cuz I like to show off the awesome things my sp sends me. If someone could help me thru it, i would so appreciate it. I am not even going to try and do any sewing today cuz I will only mess it up. What I went thru to get it from the post office and now this.

    Form the "HELP" Button at the top of the page:
    Posting a Picture

    To insert a picture in your post, select the “insert image” icon on top of the message box. This icon looks like a framed picture of a tree. Once you select this icon, you have the choice of attaching a file from your computer or entering the url (web address) for the image. Please note that the url must be for the image itself, not the whole website. You can usually get an image url by right-clicking on the picture and selecting “copy image address”.

    When you add a picture using the url, there is an option below the uploader that reads “Retrieve remote file and reference locally.” This will save the image file to Quilting Board’s servers rather than link to another website. We recommend leaving this option on, so that the other website cannot change or delete your image.

    Well heck, I thought you must be having a hard time, what did that silly post office do?!

    Anyway,

    1. Have your pics on your desktop or wherever you know to find them. Desktop is easiest.
    2. Select the Insert Image button and a small box will pop up. Make sure it is on the 'From Computer' tab.
    3. Select Browse --- find the pic, choose it and the link will be in the box.
    4. Under that box is an 'Upload File' -- hit that. I know, it should be lit up, flashing or something. Because that doesn't help much with those that don't understand that uploading thing.
    5. Once it is uploaded the box will go away and you will have an --

    6. Upload the rest and the Pic should show on your post when you look at it. Like the one below
