My apologies...

...to all those who took Jacquie's advice and came over to my "funny" blog, only to find postings about a dead/dying cat. The timing wasn't exactly the best.

There was a bright, quilting-related spot in my rather dark yesterday: I finally got to meet Simona, who at 15 months didn't sit still long enough to get any really good pictures with her present. Suffice it to say she loved her quilt, but I think she liked the box it came in even better. Ain't that always the way?


I got a better close-up of the quilting. The black squares were my first foray into free-motion with my new BSR, and I'm pretty happy with the way it looks. I was trying for a little whimsy to break up the lines, and I think/hope it worked...


OK, anybody know why some pictures will enlarge when you click on them, and some won't? It seems pretty random, and I'm not sure what I'm doing to make/not make this happen. Any hints would be appreciated.

Simona is adorable! :)

I have found that when people load from Flickr, those don't enlarge. When I click on ones people have loaded from their own computer, those get really big. Don't really know or understand, I'll be interested to hear if anyone has a definitive answer.

I don't know. I do know that I've loaded picture from my own computer - and sometimes they enlarge, and sometimes they don't. I too will be interested to find out.

The mystery continues...the pix from today and the one from yesterday were all loaded from my computer. Same size, same resolution. Strange.

no apologies necessary, life happens! isn't it so true about boxes...my kids had more fun with boxes, especially big ones.
