Hi


I just want to give a HUGE thank you to our experienced digitizers who so freely share their advice with us.

A special mention of Mops (Martine) has to be made, who always takes the time to give indepth answers, often with pictures. And she answers so promptly!

It takes valuable time to write these answers, and create these pictures.

And it is in so much detail, one can go away and immediately start fixing your problems, or try a new technique.

When I asked a question about FSL, she searched for an answer she gave to someone in 2012, and brought it to the top. It was in a comment, so she could not just click on "Mops" and find all the entries, she had to physically search for it. And she added more information. Now that is what I call going an extra mile to help people.

I put this here, and not under Digitizing, as a lot of non-digitizers will not look at the entries under Digitizing, and I want most people to see this.

Thank you also to all the other cuties who gives advice - we are all creative, and some very good ideas surfaced in the comments.

Thank you all!
Anneliese

Oh, and regarding the FSL: I have never before done a FSL design, and thought I had to buy expensive tutorials to learn how to do it. With her instructions and pictures, I feel confident to start trying it, without the expensive manuals.

And her description of how to create water colour effects, will be put to use translating some of my water colour paintings into thread paintings! I can't wait to start doing that.

Thanks again!

To see some gorgeous thread painting, look at Anita Goodesign - two sets to start with are Horses and mini Art Quilts (may be under Special Editions).
