Okay…large, gorgeous pix are a mixed blessing. As if it weren’t hard enough to make choices when looking at postage stamp size quilts, seeing them huge and incredible makes it that much harder to decide! I LOVE it!
I, too, love the size of the pictures in your new format. However, I was finding this format frustrating.
If I just clicked on the picture to get the larger image, I had to scroll up to see it, click the back arrow to get back to the rest of the designs, then scroll down to find the next quilt.
To get around all that clicking and scrolling, I did a right click on the pic and selected ‘open in new tab’.
As usual, the quilts are wonderful, but I have to agree with comment #2. It took me much longer to view this week’s entries. I haven’t figured out the right click technique yet. I’ll keep trying.
Wow, what a fabulous array and what a lovely idea, I wish you every success with your venture, you have my undying admiration xxxxxxxxx
i like the crocodile quilt the best!
Great contest! Hard to choose but I love the sunshine quilt!
Lots of great ideas in these quilts!
p.s. some iphone’s weren’t able to vote and a windows mobile phone wasn’t able to either. Not sure why, but thought you’d like to know.
