    I sent a photo to sewbiz of the fabric I will be using. My only color request is BLACK ONLY.. I also got the invite to the Holly page, but I didn't see where I was suppose to accept the invite.
    My baggies are full and my package will go out Monday.

    Do I need to put a note in each individual baggies regarding my color choice?

    Marcilee - yes - please put all recommendations on color in each bag. I can't remember what i had for breakfast so won't recall who wanted black! Also if you have any plans on who will be receiving the quilt or what you are planning for it. It helps get our juices running. - even something like LOUD fabric or soft colors!!

    Logcabin! How did you get your photos to post like this? Usually our photos post as only tiny thumbnails that we have to click on to open into big photos. I would love to know how to post them big in the first place. Love your fabrics, BTW.

    Here's my swap picks. New couch means new, loud couch quilt.
    polkweed, your photo didn't show up. You have to shrink photos small for them to be able to post here. I hope you will try again!

    Marcialee, YES, put a note in with your fabrics that say to use black only! Only what is on the note counts, not what's said in this thread. People will forget what you say in the thread so the notes in the bags is a must. No note means "do whatever you want with my fabric". LOL.

    To get into the group, click on the link in my sig line and there should be a prompting to ask if you want to join that group. Click on 'yes'. If you have been invited, you should see that prompting.

    Love your star, Terri! That fabric is so dear to me because I used it to make clothes for my grandgirls when they were babies!

    Only two days left to sign up for this swap! Sign ups close tomorrow night at 11:59. Lurkers? Last chance... we'd love to have you join us.

    Sure Sewbizgirl!

    1. If you want to post pics their original size, I go to: https://imgbb.com/
    2. You can either drag or upload your pictures clicking: Start upload
    3. Select your photos
    4. Before you upload, be sure the tab says "Don't Auto Delete," Otherwise your pics will disappear after a set time. You can also select multiple photos to upload.
    5. Press upload.
    6. It will say upload complete and then you will scroll down to "Embed codes". Click "Viewer links" and select "BB Code Full Link" and then copy that link.
    7. When you post, remove the URL link in the code, you don't need this to post your photo: [*url=https://ibb.co/dPz4BKd][*img]https://i.ibb.co/485RWN6/14-ED58-C7-5-DE9-4-CC6-B135-F3-C09-C02-E822.jpg[/*img][/*url]
    8. Then You'll just have your image code and post that:

    I think I figured it out. Rather than using a 3rd party host like Logcabin, I've been uploading to a site album and using the provided links. But when I created one for the Boom, I set it to private rather than public. So is this showing up for everyone?
