jeremysgirl or anyone not attaching photos to the forum and thereby using space - what are you doing to post pics please? I can see you used Pic Collage jeremysgirl but I can’t see how you actually put the photo here. Would you explain please? I've been using imgbb once I figured it out with the help of katybee.

@patter I'm very interested to see the inside of your book and how you did the pages.
Does this help at all? Let me know if you want different photos. Also, my book measures 5 3/4“ x 9 1/4“. There are three signatures at the top, three signatures in the middle, and three signatures at the bottom. There are a total of 42 papers in each section for a total of 126 pages. I cut each piece of paper to 3" x 10".

JoP - Gorgeous blanket! You did an excellent job. I'm sure your friend will treasure it. gillyp - Some of us are using PostImages.org to post photos. I have been using Tapatalk previously, but it is cumbersome since I do all my posting on a desktop. That means I have to find the laptop or phone, pull up my post and edit it to add the photos. With Postimages I can do it all on my desktop. Still working on my Tessa quilt top with no photos to share just yet. Hopefully by the weekend though!

Thanks all. I looked at Tapatalk a little while ago and dismissed it for some reason. I’ll look again and at PostImages.

Sometimes I'll write the post elsewhere and then go in my phone to post the relevant pics. Or vice versa. So be warned, you may see my posts midpoint between words and pics, between Tapatalk and not Tapatalk.

I'm a "promiscuous" stitcher. I have many projects on the go, but here's what I have on display for July:

The forum is out of picture space so JoP sent me her pictures to post here on her behalf. This way you can see a close up of the border finsup  These are so pretty! They remind me of beautiful Central American and Mexican fabrics!

Glad it helps lainey. Yes, I too think it will be fun. I had seen years and years ago someone that did the 3 sets of signatures, and I have always wanted to do it but never have. I finally took time to do it yesterday. And thanks jeremysgirl.

Lovely projects! May I join in? MichyM inspired me to try my hand at beaded loom weaving. My first attempt wasn't so great, but I learned a lot and tore that bracelet down. Here's my second one for my granddaughter. I've finished another one for my oldest granddaughter and now the 3rd one wants a choker. This is very addicting. I'm a former mini-album/book maker. Used to sell on ebay back in the day...

I have no clue if my picture will work! Trying out imgbb, thanks for the suggestion! I started a crib sized quilt for a new baby in the family. This is my first attempt at quilting since early high school so quilters, don’t be too harsh lol! It is the Turning 20 pattern. I made some mistakes, particularly in print placement but I didn’t have enough fabric to correct it. Baby girl shouldn’t notice though. Live and learn! This is the top so far, I’m waiting for the backing and batting to come in the mail. Hoping to cut the binding in the next day or two.

'm a "promiscuous" stitcher. I have many projects on the go, but here's what I have on display for July: that's funny. Could apply to me, too. Haven't stitched in a while but often had too much going at once. Still have a big cross stitch Santa I haven't worked on in a l o n g time. I came upon it the other day and wondered when or if I'd ever finish it. LOL this is xstitch I started when Six2 kid was still within meStop at DD and gave them the double sided sign (loved it!- both sides  ) yesterday. Also offered to give back the sea glass that was lost in my trunk and when they saw the little sea horse it was snatched up quite quickly. I think I got a thank you... Now on to my next crafting adventure! or to take a while and think about what that is. Could go either way! alexa11 love the bracelet. I used to make loom bead stuff as a kid and MichyM has also inspired me to (think about) doing it again. My mom passed away a couple years back and when cleaning out her drawer I found a beaded thing I made her when I was probable barely double digits. I put her name in it. MILDRED. I distinctly remember having to graph/plan that part out. LOL

Just dug out above mentioned MILDRED thing. Note what a good young daughter I was. Fresh off the loom and made into nothing in particular.😂 Crafting from the way, way back machine. 45-50 years ago. Damn! I can literally still feel my little brain trying to figure out how get that Mildred in there. MichyM you've got nothing on the childhood me! LOL .

I inherited a few items back from my mom and was surprised she'd kept some of them!

So sad--got an email the other day that a wonderful quilt shop near me is going out of business. She had the best selection of fabrics and kits. I've been on a mission to destash, so trying hard to not go and buy stuff...

I can see you used Pic Collage jeremysgirl but I can’t see how you actually put the photo here. Would you explain please? I have a blogspot blog, so I upload my pictures there to a page that I don't have linked, and then I use the image URL to post over here. I can be more specific with instructions if you want, but I won't bore you otherwise.

I woke up at 4 am! 4 am! What to do? I guess coffee and crochet it is. I woke up at 4:45 a.m. and decided today "nope." So I stayed in bed until 5:45 a.m. On days when I get up at 4 a.m., I start sewing masks or something to keep busy. Crochet sounds like a great idea.

The good news is I'm much fresher in the am than I am in the pm. When I woke this morning I realized I did the last round last night on my blanket incorrectly. So I frogged and redid it. I'm useless after 8 pm.
