I've found that when I'm taking a picture with my cellphone and pointing it down in a perfectly horizontal position, the picture result is sideways. If you tilt the top (lens) up slightly at an angle to snap it, the resulting picture will be upright. I hope this helps.

I just finished my small houses 1 & 2. I love, love this method. I have taught foundation quilting using newsprint and this is so much easier. My husband likes it too (no little pieces all over when I rip it out). Thank you Barbara for all the information on prepping and the idea of cutting 3 1/2” strips from the fabric—makes cutting much quicker. Using the 10D foot (edge foot) is wonderful. Thank you to whoever mentioned it to Barbara so she could pass it on to all of us. I don’t know who suggested using the little craft iron but I want to thank you too. Can’t wait for the Mariners compass block next month.
