    Terriamn.......that is chill-binding! I would be rendered useless hearing of that news! Prayers of peace for you, the girls and everyone involved. Pray knowingly that the Angels are there to wrap fearful hearts in comfort and safety. Love to you and the families.

    Ok Kat........ I am willing to put up the finished quilt (64" x 76" ish) from the blocks of Boom 14 (Nana's Giggle Quilt). Since I won't have blocks until the first week of March......I will take the Challenge based on having it finished with binder ready for Mother's Day!

    What say you.........? Anyone else up for the Challenge?

    Are you ready for another challenge? I sewed almost all my quilt tops together while I was on vacation. Just need a "push" to get em done!

    Maybe this will help - instead of trying to save original pic in reduced size - try to use "save as" and just add an indicator to the code = I used sm for small. When you do this you end up with two images in your photo gallery - your original and the smaller version.

I have been successful in reducing the resolution...just won't save the actual size. Will try something else tomorrow.

    Thanks,

    The dream bubble edges are 3D, and you can't see in the pic but the stitching of the dream bubble to the background is a fancy stitch on my machine that looks like clouds connected by a wavy line.

    Crafty - I haven't been able to re-set the color intensity on my camera. However, here's what I discovered. I take the photo on my device (in this case my Sony digital camera) From there I download it via the USB port to my PC using the software provided by Sony. I rename and save it to My Pictures. Remove my camera and USB cord from my PC. Then I go in and open My Pictures to the photo file name. I double click it and it opens in Microsoft Paint Program. There I can reduce the resolution and the size of the photo.....only if I find "print" in the drop down menu and click there for the ability to save as a reduced resolution and visual size before printing. If I click file....save in my paint program it will not allow me to revise it....I have to click file...print and then look at my options...make the changes and then click save. I can't believe I just explained all that! Scarey!

    Thanks for the post Crafty, I appreciate the support.

    I love this block, Kass and she will too! It is so her! Dreaming of spring gardening is what she holds on to. The pocket is wonderful! Thank you so much....for this! I did get the feeling of what you wanted to express immediately.

    Hugs,
    Bee
