First off, I have to ask. Is there a website you all use to edit your photos? For free, I mean. Because I have been using
Picnik to edit mine for months, but now they are shutting down. I guess if you use Google+ it will be available there, but honestly, I do not need another social media site to keep track of (sorry Google+, I'm sure you're wonderful). I don't have a fancy camera & I'm not a fabulous photographer, but
Picnik has always allowed me to make my photos look good. What to do? Hoping you all have the answer.
Anyways, today I finished up this sweet baby quilt...
I used Villa Rosa Designs "Gypsy" pattern and a layer cake of
Moda's Berenstein Bears fabric. I love how colorful and happy it turned out! Also, this is the first decent sized quilt that I have quilted myself on my
Janome. I used straight lines, on the diagonal, 1 1/2 inches apart and I think it turned out pretty good! I do think if I am going to attempt to quilt anything bigger than this I need a quilting machine with a bigger throat. Hmmm.... maybe it's time to start researching? I mean, I love my basic Janome, but there are some things I could do better on a different machine.
Here's the back of the quilt:
Who knew that I would get such a sunny, gorgeous day to take pictures in the middle of February? This is my kind of winter...

We use Picassa for photos. Simple to use, gets rid of red eye and you can clip photos etc. easy to select photos to send on to friends as attachments to emails.
Maybe try photobucket. I haven't been on the site in awhile, however I think you can do some editing.
I love the happy colors in that quilt!
Picassa. And the quilt? ADORABLE and hooray for quilting it yourself!
Cute quilt! Love the top photo especially. I use Photoscape, a free download. You can crop, sharpen, brighten, create mosiacs & all kinds of good stuff. I'm trying to figure out Picasa, but I need to learn more before I decide if I like it.
