"Hi Monica I'm not sure if I'm on the right site to ask a question, but here goes. I have made a baby dress and the neck and I would like to make the neck smaller, the trouble is that the dress is completed . . ." more

"HiI'm not sure if we get okra in Canada, maybe specialty stores, but like I said we only have one grocery store in our town. I remember eating chicken gumbo soup and I loved it. What else could I use instead . . ." more

"Oh Monica that recipe looks sssooooooooo good, but how do I make it with the yummy ingredients like Carolina Tweet and gumbo! In our tiny little town that I live in, they don't have gumbo, any suggestions . . ." more

Hi Catherine - sorry I did not get your messages about adding pictures until today for some reason. There is a tutorial I wrote to show you how to do this. It is located here: How to Create Clickable Images in Your Comments - HTML LESSON. I wonder though if you even know how to add photos or posts to Gather -- to do this, at the top of every Gather page there is a section that says Explore. If you go there then to the far right of the menu that pops up is share. Select share, and you will come to a screen that allows you to create a post, a photo, or a video. Select the one for photo. There will then be a button to look up the photo on your computer. Select the photo you want and follow the steps to publishing it on Gather. If you need more help, just let me know. If you cannot get me on Gather, you can e-mail me at monicajkennedy@gmail.com or IM me on yahoo under the name thx4memories. Can't wait to see your pictures!

Hi Cathrine! I just wanted to stop by to say thanks for joining my Crochet 101 class. If you have any questions, feel free to post them as a comment in one of the lessons or ping my profile. Also, welcome to Gather. You will love it here. I have been a member here for 3 ½ yrs. Along the way I have written several things that are helpful for those new to Gather. I have them all in my group, Monica's How to Gather Tips and Tutorials . Check it out and if you have any questions, let me know.

Catherine - it is funny you say you RIP RIP RIP you Ripple projects - nice pun! My secret to getting ripples right is to be vigilent about keeping count on stitches, always making sure my clusters are where they are supposed to be. I have to RIP RIP RIP too sometimes, but it is worth it for such a pretty result. A friend once told me she uses bread clips (little squares with the hole in it) to mark her stitches. Never tried that but it might help you too. Now, I see you are looking for an easy border for your baby blanket - I can help. One of my favorites is the quick stitch: join with sc in corner, ch 3, 2 dc in same st, skip 2 dc, sc in next st, *ch 2, 2 dc in same space, skip 2 dc, sc in next st,; repeat from * around all edges. Join with sl st in corner sc. Tie off. See this on: Quick Stripes Baby Afghan
