i NEED SOMEONE TO TAKE THE BLOCK IMAGES AND LAY THEM OUT IN A PICTURE FORMAT FOR EVERYONE TO SEE ALL TOGETHER....I do not want the resposibility of laying them out in position per rows...Don't mind putting it together for you, but I don't want to place someones on the bottom and they feel hurt because of it....I tried laying it out without looking at names really...just by going by color seperation and animal vs flower format....Would anyone be able to do that and take that part on for me to go by....

Lay them all out on the living room floor move them around until the layout satisfies your eyes and forget who is where, we are all one big happy family...don't sweat the small stuff...you have taken on a very large project, relax and do what you think looks best .... hugs x0x0x0x

Deanne, I think you should just lay out the blocks the way they look best, in my opinion most cuties wont give a hoot where they are in the scheme of things in the project, after all what is top, bottom or middle?.... just a perception from where you happen to be at a point of time. You are doing a fantastic job, and dont worry about hurt feelings. If you can get it arranged by computer and it saves you some time and heartache, go for it, otherwise use your heart and lay it out as you wish.cheers ruth

It is really cool to hold something from each of you and know that somewhere across the world this block was made....I am in awe of that....

OK. Send me the pictures you have and I will play around with them for you, but I must warn you that Colours can appear different on different monitors and in my honest, but humble, opinion you would be far better off using the actual blocks and rearranging them until you come up with something pleasing to the eye.

Since you are the instigator, organiser and brains behind this idea, we, and i think i speak for all of us, are quite happy to accept whatever layout you come up with and there will be no Bit***** later as this is being made with love and should be above any personal aggrandisement.

But, if you really think it is necessary, I do have the programs and expertise to arrange photo's into a layout for you.

Martine's program sounds far better seeing as it is Quilt specific.

funny thing that ...not being a computer guru myself, simplyrosie volunteered and when I went to send the file folder holding all the pictures, it wouldn't let me....I am working on that part 2...Think I had better take a crash course on computer knowledge or go buy the computer

Hi Deanna, I agree with everyone else on here.

Place mine wherever you think it should go. We are leaving it up to your good eye for colour and placement.

All of the blocks I have seen so far are beautiful and as they have all been made with love - it will be gooooorrrrgggeeeooouuusss!!!!!

Thank you for doing all of this.

Love and blessings Chris

Please wait for my block. I won't mind where you place it, as long as you let mine be part of it. I am working on the design right now.

I am just so blessed to be part of this wonderful project.

Any where but the back is fine - don't forget the one that I still have to stitch for Loretta - use a picture of it - to decide placement - but it will be red - not peach. *4U

I feel the same as everybody else. I do not care where my block goes. I think you have very good ideas and have good judgement. I think the blocks will coordinate just fine and I think the end result will turn out great.

Deanna, I agree with Barb. No one should care where they are placed. I like your idea of laying it out by color seperation and animal vs flowers. We want it as sewmom said "As long as the overall picture is pleasant to look at". This is a gift and we trust your judgement. :)

Deanna, I think the only way this would work is if they were in a Word or Publisher document, I'm not sure a 'photo layout' would work with the small upload sizes we have, like in projects. Maybe it would, my imagination might not just be able to see it. Anybody have better ideas, hard as it is to believe, gasp, I could be WRONG, hee hee hee. Hugs, Marji

Oh, yeah, placement. Does this really matter to anyone? If we're at the bottom are we going to smell feet? Hee hee heee
