morgansmith Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 For nearly 40 years I have only worked on one house at a time. Now, I feel very strongly about throwing together a little 1/4" scale 'retreat' for a friend fighting cancer. I see it next to her bed, her favorite place right now. Who knows where she'll see it : )I haven't gone near 1/4" in years, had no clue of what's what and who's who, so I finally figured out how to start a topic and asked. I got great answers that were very helpful. Now my point is........it's more frustrating than ever because I know who I want to ask the question regarding where I'm stuck on my fling. If I ask all of you what blank blank should be and blanks, could you help out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THmini2 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Oh, oh mine also has a big hole in the side. Are we on the same wave length? But that is as far as I have gotten. Hopefully this weekend will be a fling workathon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mybrainhurts Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Morgan, you can send me a pm and I can try to answer. Holly has graciously offered to give advice to anyone that wants some as well. I'm enjoying watching you all be so secretive even though I'd rather be seeing works in progress!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be praying for your ideas to come strong and you to be able to get it all done, as well as for your friend. :hug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I have posted (here? elsewhere?) that I'm available to offer suggestions and help and I'm usually only a PM away. I've already had two flingers ask, and I can already see signs that the creative juices are surging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morgansmith Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Holly & Kynne......you guys are great. I don't have internet and can't pm from my phone on here because I can't figure out how to get pm controls out from under my keyboard. I have email. Can't figure out where that goes in the profile. Any thoughts? I know, I'm a ding a ling. I'm trying here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Morgan, if you hover your cursor over my username at the top left of this post you can send me a PM with your email that I can replay to and you can email me your queries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwcole7 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Well, I am a little stuck.... trying to figure out some new things for this Spring Fling idea and it's not working out quite right. I think this is going to be a bigger project than my first thought. :jawdrop: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgansmith Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Holly, I don't have a cursor to hover. All I can do is click on your user name and bring up your profile. A computer genius I am not however & this could be operator error. I have also tried using the mobile version of this site and reaaaaaaally got myself lost! In my defense, I can operate a scroll saw and sewing machine much better. I am not ignoring kind offers, I WILL keep trying! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otterine Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Morgan, if you can bring up a profile, you should see a button that reads, "send me a message." Also, up at the top of the page there is an envelope. If you click that, your PM list opens and you have the option of "compose new" on the upper right of the drop box that opens. Do you see either of these on the device your using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Sometimes you can get where you're trying to go if you have arrow buttons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgansmith Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Okay, it appears that 'send me a message' and 'compose new' from the top of a main page in the envelope give me two totally different screens to type from and send. The compose new seemed to work. Possibly a good thing to remember. I may not have the only PM challenged phone. I sent you a message Holly, just letting you know in case you don't get it. And Kynne, if this works I'll send you one. I need all the help I can get on one dumb thing! I'm stuck, but my dear sweet blankety blank sits here nearby. I can't make the poor thing wait in the box. It's as excited as I am hoping for a solution to it's blank dilemmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Clicking the envelope did the trick, and since I got your PM you needn''t send me your email!lol Just send questions (if you got my reply, that is). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CourtofGypsies Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Well, I'm in "scared to continue" mode. I know exactly what I want to do and how to get there (I think) but am having stage fright. What if this and what if that happens blah blah blah... Anyone else experience this? Is this just my inexperience getting in the way? HAHA, maybe I'm just being lazy? Going to try and carve out quiet time to do some serious work this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otterine Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 One of my art professors used to say that part of the art making process comes from happy accidents, so go ahead and try things. :yes: That's how I ended up with blueberry stained floors in my beach house from last year. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgansmith Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Ok everyone.........I finallu succeeded with the pm thing. I wrote Holly (kynne, you were next, but, read on) and must share the results. Anyway, I.ve googled literally thousands of images trying to solve my little dilemma. I wrote Holly a fairly brief description of my project and my question. She sent me back a photo with info how to emulate it. Hmmmmmmmmm..........I know I must have seen this photo, I have seen sooooooooo many. Nothing new. Or..................was it??? Suddenly, the light bulb did it's thing and the world became brilliant again. HOLLY YOU ARE MAGIC! To anyone stuck I say this, you are ccccccccccccccraaaaaaaazy if you don't get Holly's help. She is the dhmw. That's dollhouse miracle worker! THANK YOU HOLLY! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deb Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 I'm right on the edge of starting my Fling and I'm sooooooooooooo excited! I submitted an order for all the things I need for it and it should be here about the middle of next week. That's perfect timing because my BFF will be here in about 7 hours for our Quilt Show and mega shopping weekend. It's something we do every year so my excitement level is thru the roof. It'll be an awesome weekend and then I'll have the Fling to jump into and keep the excitement going. Oh, and while it's not part of the Fling, I do already have a greenhouse in dry fit as a conservatory. SO cool!! Deb 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytchy Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 It's here!!! it's here... I finally got it from the postoffice today..
