This is now what my iPad looks like when I click on someone's new post on my blogger dashboard. It used to take me right to the web version of the blog...now, when I click on these links shown below, it brings up the post with much smaller pictures that I can not zoom in on the pictures to see good! I want my old version back! Has this happened to anyone else and do you know how to change this view? There is a button to click on at the bottom of the page to see the web version, but it's a pain! Does anyone have some help for this new blogger??
On another note, I did some baking today. First, that yummy toffee with crackers and chocolate! Here they are before the chocolate and Oreo Sprinkles...
And here they are after....mmmm good!
And then I tried a new Nutella cookie I saw on Pinterest...it turned out really good! We'll see if they last til company comes on Saturday...we might need to make more of these! They were a bit less trouble than Chocolate Crackles, which are one of our faves for Christmas, but the recipe didn't make as many cookies. We might need the Crackles after all! Tomorrow will be sugar cookie day...our Very Favorite!
In the sewing room, I got 9 blocks of Pennies From Heaven ready to stitch.
I rarely seem to follow a pattern all the way, so I think I will be rearranging the quilt a bit. Nothing against Gretchen Gibbons...that's just how I do things! For now my plan is to do these 9 blocks shown below ... I have the wool on cotton that looks like wool. I hope the brown fabric looks like wool too. I was going for a rug hooked look. It's a really nice looking brown fabric. I used up many of my textured red and green wools...looks like I need a shopping trip!
Cheryl from So Many Quilts, So Little Time blog got me inspired and asked if i would like to work along with her on these blocks. Mine have a Christmas feel and hers are bright and pretty like the book cover!
I have a special Thank You to Michelle from The Raspberry Rabbits! She sent me this darling pin cushion and bunny scissors after I complimented her scissors...what a sweetheart! We both collect bunnies and we've become good blogging buddies! She has a pretty cute blog...check it out and enjoy her talents!
Thanks for stopping by today!
Take care,
Missie

I hate when they change an application and make it worse.
ReplyDeleteLove your pennies, that is a beautiful pattern and I like the idea of doing it in different color schemes.

I have an IPad and the same thing is happening. Like you, I don't like the change but don't know how to change it back, or even if it can be changed back! Your blocks are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteMy Ipad is also looking like this now , good to know I am not the only one.I love your project blocks!
ReplyDeleteRats, I was hoping a new I pad would take care of the blogger issues I am having with my tablet. I too have been baking and make the same toffee with saltines. I also have that Pennies from Heaven book and want to start that quilt. Too many projects, too little time!

ReplyDeleteYou have been busy to get that many blocks prepped. I ordered the PFH book yesterday, and it is all your fault!
ReplyDeleteI love the Christmas feel of your blocks. Like you, I am always changing up a pattern. One of the gals in our group does not want to use the sawtooth blocks, so I may share your idea of setting just the 9 blocks.
ReplyDeleteMy ipad is doing the same thing!
Wish I could help you, Missie...I've given up sometimes when they make changes!!
ReplyDeleteLove your Christmas blocks :)
Hugs, Carolyn
My iPad is doing the same thing and it's just awful! I agree that it is very frustrating to not be able to enlarge the pictures. My eyesight isn't that great and being able to really "see" the pictures was very helpful. I would sure appreciate it if you DO happen to find out how to change it back, if you could post the information. I'll keep my fingers crossed!!
ReplyDeleteI just had a thought - do you know of anyway to contact Blogger to see if there is a way to return our iPad's to the old format?
