An iPhoto Hiatus

Wednesday, September 19th, 2012

Yesterday, I was getting ready to download photos and post a blog and my iPhoto app crashed. I couldn’t fix it — tried some disc first aid and gave up and made an appointment for phone support with Apple. I spent over an hour with a very nice tech, but it was taking so long to rebuild my library that he had to let me go and told me to call back when that was done. Instead, I made an appointment with a Macologist at the store where I bought the Macbook. I spent from 2:30 until 5 pm there.

The problem was too many photo libraries and it finally crashed. Every time I got a new computer last year and downloaded my backup from the internet, it created a new library. Today, we integrated all of them and it seems to be working very well and I have found a lot of missing photos.

Yesterday, Mr C and I delivered the Twelve by Twelve quilts to the quilt expo. I supervised how they would be hung and then left them in the capable hands of some terrific kids to do the hanging.

I got some time in the studio to finish fusing the kelp quilt.

I found this great fabric for the back in my stash.

I made a trip to Fabric Depot this morning to get some thread and tonight I started quilting.

Here is today’s 3 x 3.

I have to get up at 4 am in the morning to meet Terry at the Quilt Expo as we are doing a little promo about the Twelve exhibit for the local NBC affiliate. We are going to have the TV personality fuse a 12 x 12 quilt. Our segment is to air at 6:45 so if you are in the area, get up and watch!!

Now, I have to get myself organized for getting up that early!!
