IPhone apps
Finally found some time to explore the world of apps on my IPhone. All I can say is WOW!! Another new world to learn about. After downloading Facebook and Youtube and the barcode scanner it was time to look around. Of course 1st search was for anything to do with quilts. Surprise! Lots of good quilting apps.Here are just a few: some are free and some cost a dollar or 2. Have you used any of these? Do you have a favorite?
