Blue Pineapples doily

This is doily is called Blue Pineapples and was designed by Cille Heckenbach.  It measures 14 inches and was made with #10 white thread and #10 wood violet by Royale.  I guess the "blue pineapples" is now Wood Violet Pineapples.

New header

I've been wanting to build a new header for my blog but was having a real  problem getting it to work in Photoshop.  I'm self taught so my knowledge was limited.  Found a site that walked me through making one using the Picasa software.  It was really easy and I like the way it turned out.  May follow through and make multiple collages so I can change them out on the blog during the year.  Especially want to make one with a Christmas theme for that time of the year.

Picture sizes

I've been seeing some different blogs with really nice/large pictures and had to find out how to make the pictures on my blog larger.  After some online reading I was able to determine how to do this.  I've resized the photos in the last couple of blog entries and really like them.

What do you think?

I may just go back thru the blog and resize all the photos to the larger size. 

It's been raining here most the afternoon....and a good time to work on this project.
