Thank you again, Margo! Okay, my daughter taught me that if you FEED a man a fish, he has a meal. If you TEACH a man to fish, he can feed himself for life. So, I need to learn this trick. First tell me; is this a cut and past thing? I learned it years ago, but without using it periodically, I forget. If that is the case, I will have DH refresh my memory. Dawn In beautiful Northwest Montana That's a favorite quote of mine, Dawn!! No, it's not just cut and paste, but after you've done a couple it's easy to figure out how. You have to save photos on your hard drive in order to upload them onto the forum. For instance, to retrieve Carol's photo, I just went to Carol's profile, scrolled down to "My Latest Blogs" found her Member Blog about her sister's quilt and opened it. I put the cursor on the photo of her sister's quilt and RIGHT CLICKED; Selected "Save Image As" and put it in a file on my hard drive where I knew I could find it! I usually put all my TQS photos in a file I call "2011 TQS" in "My Pictures". (Sorry, I can't help you with the MAC photo terms.) To insert a photo in a forum comment, just fill in your text as usual. After you have filled in your text box, scroll down a little farther and click on “Upload Attachment”. Click “Choose File” and navigate through your computer to the photo you want to post. Click on your chosen photo to select it, and then click “OPEN”, and then click “add the file”. After the file has been uploaded, park your cursor in the text box where you want the picture to show up and click “place in-line”. The photo title will appear where your cursor was. Click “Submit” and you will be taken back to the forum page and your post should be there. (Your photos will load quicker if you can resize them to a smaller file.) For more information about navigating the TQS forum, go to: [url]forum/forum-questions-and-suggestions/4275-tips-for-using-the-tqs-forum[/url] |

Thank you Margo! You are so quick! I had just gone through the forums to find the reference for that HST with the lines, then when I came back here to comment, THERE IT WAS! Your drawing on that HST is what got me started! Thank you again!!! Dawn In beautiful Northwest Montana Dawn, Are you planning on doing these tiny stars for your entire HST quilt or were you just trying it out? Since I still struggle with accurate 1/4" seams on large blocks, I can't even imagine working with such itsy-bitsy pieces that look so perfect. You must have very good eyesite and a very good light on your machine...plus a lot of patience. I still can't imagine that the block is only 3" square. :shock: Debbie Debbie, I have only done paper pieced minis. This will be different, and probably a challenge, but I'm up for it. I love small detail work. If you go to (I think) the blog before last of cmollers, you will see a quilt that she did for her sister. (Or just hang around and Margo will majically make it appear!) That is what I plan on doing. I think this quilt will lend itself perfectly to the randon HSTs that I will be receiving. Oh, do you recognize any of the fabric in the picture?  I'll see if I can figure out where it is on the blog (since I'm a little blog challenged)...or I'[ll check back to see Margo's magic as appeared! Your quilt will be absolutely incredible! And, yes, some of the fabric does look suspiciously familiar!! |

tiny is absolutely fabulous
where will i ever find the time for all the options and new ideas this opens up better run out and get some lottery tickets - there just has to be a way to quit working to give me more "hobby" time... but i'll also need more space - and light - and ...  |

When cut into fourths like this your units will measure 3/4" x 3/4" when finished! WONDERFUL DESIGN DAWN!
And thanks go to Annis for the suggestion to miniaturize the HSTs!!  |
