July Plans

It is so frustrating , when I try to download photos onto my blog by choosing files it simply will not allow me to do so ,it will not respond  so you will have to forgive me for the way these will be set up until I can figure out what is going wrong I am loading them from Picasa using the blog this button  . Can someone give me a free software I can download ?
 First off this little mug rug was made using some of the scraps left over from the aprons , I hope to deliver them today and I will give her this as well .


So my UFO plans for this month include the following three , first off the hexies that I have made quite some time ago andI had  even made one block which  will be my plan for these flowers .


This is my plan to make basket blocks and include three hexies into each basket , I do think I will add some leaves and stems in the next one . One thing that will change is the background I have used this one up so will need to pick up something similar , oh dear that means shopping , what a girl has to do ;-)
 


Next up are these nine patch plus snowball blocks that I exchanged with my friends that I sew with on Wednesdays .I have rearranged these some since taking this photo and will likely arrange again before stitching ,not sure if I will add sashings , what do you think ? I may change the shape of this too , it was just easier to place it on the design wall this way  .

I also want to stitch together these crazy patch blocks from way back when I was doing Crazy Quilting Fridays with Betsy of  quiltingfiesta.blogspot.com  . I had made quite a few light blocks which I did finish into a quilt and still had these dark blocks which I think I will need just a few more to make this work but I enjoy making them so no problem there and it will be so nice to get this finished at least into a top .

 So I am linking up with Carrie for Nothing but UFO's .

Thanks for stopping by on this trying to be sunny July morning , have a wonderful day doing something creative and fun  .
 hugs Sheila

  2. Sheila, you are aways so busy and make such great projects. Sweet little mug rug and wonderful hexies! I save my pics on my computer and use picMonkey to resize them for my blog. Then it is just a matter of inserting the image. Good luck!

  16. Your mug rug is gorgeous - love the tartan teapot! Which reminds me - I need a cup of tea...

    Sorry can't think why you are having the photo problem - how annoying. Have you asked on the Blogger forum for ideas?

  17. lots of neat projects for this month.
    I add the photos right from my camera card. I use the Mircosoft Office picture manager to crop, change the lighting, and resize my photos.
