I will take the chimney off and readjust I think. But is cute for what it is and my first tissue box cover. The heart bargello matches the king size heart bargello I made for my bed last year. I cut this out, sewed it and then left it to be quilted. Now it is complete and will hang on my wall in my room. Oh goodie, more to enjoy looking at.
    Ring the bell twice.
    QM, congrats on the finishes. The tissue box cover is cute and I really like the bargello heart.

If you zoom up to 400% you can see the beautiful FMQ work she's done and the realistic dolphin skin. Just wonderful.
    Thanks for the zoom hint. Yes that was worth seeing.

    I'd like to get in on this too, if I can. I may only get one, but maybe this will get me going.

    Beautiful bargello heart, I have that book, can't buy it any more. It was one of the first quilting books I bought.

    Gladie, how do you zoom in on a quilt? I am so computer illiterate. I have often wanted to look at something a little closer. Thanks.

    In the lower rt hand corner of your screen is and icon with 100% and a little down arrow. Click on the arrow and a menu will show up with a range of %'s. The higher the % the bigger the picture and font appear. When done viewing in the high % repeat but return to 100%. (I can never get Control 0 to work to return to 100%.) Happy viewing!! G
