I'm glad you didn't delete that because we do need to discuss thing sometimes, even negative, cause....maybe we don't have anyone to talk to.....kwim? But I understand you!
Crative COrrection...I did a couple spring...which basically involved an Easter Egg on the sweater. And then a 2 fall things, which involved a ghost and pumpkin embellishements on the bear. Then I done some fiddling with the cats in the parlour designs. Then I'm trying to remember how to do the proper exports, save, with all the variations one can do ( need to write down set of instructions for myself) to avoid reinventing the wheel everytime. How many different ways can it be done? A lot! Example I thought I had it, then I realized the color thread key was giving me the color number name, color itself, but not the amount of thread used...which is s thing people look at so they know what they need. Also my AK sister suggested I convert all my thread colors to the DMC thread manufacturer as that is the most common people use/familiar with. SO I'll have to revisit a few things and change some colors. But I know the tool to do this now, so it should be simple. I'll have to go back and see how that did not get included. I'm practicing right now with a write up as if I were to do a listing for downloadable PDF, of which there would be two separate PDF's. One would be the PDF file of the actual, official "CHARTS/KEYS" the software itself generates. The second PDF would be my own creation with a cover page, title, designer (me) copyright information, customer thank you for purchase letter, little story, plus general information and an additional JPEG of a stitched view "I" like, I think it's more helpful than the actual charts. I'm not sure why this one isn't used INSTEAD of those charts, quite honestly. SO I'm writing it up in my own way, style, including an additional JPEG of a view other people do not. When this is done I will send it to my two sisters to review as if they had received after doing a purchase online from my shop. Get feedback...is it good, editing suggestiions, and, do I keep that JPEG part or eliminate it? There might be a reason to not include that, though I have it labeled supplemental, "not" the chart, to be used in conjunction WITH the chart....etc. ...that is beyond me. PArticularly my sister in Alaska, she has the most experience with charts. SO this took some time this morning. To type this up, make it look "professional" I can e-mail this to them and they can review and give feedback. I will do this tomorrow. THen I actually need to get the files I made into the proper format to do the bundle submission in one more time. IN regard the fall/spring bears....these would be the simplest design to offer as a chart for people that wanted to do. So now I have CHristmas, vests, smock tops, hannukah, USA, Fall, Easter, then all the cat things.
I put mom's bed away. Got out some packing paper and used artist tape I had on hand to tape over the downstairs glass door. I don't want anyone right now to be able to look in that door. We've had some late night creepers cuaght on camera plus workman coming, to work outside down there, I just want privacy right now.
FInished the blanket, it's cute, glad it's done. Washed hand wash, unloaded DW, reloaded, did hand wash. I Have a dinner plan so must make that a go and need to run to the store.
