Quilt Block Keyboard
Now we've got all we need, a quilt block font!
http://www.fontsnthings.com/original/original3d09.shtml Now if I could just figure out how to install them on my computer... can any of you help me with that? Mickie (usual disclaimer, no connection whatsoever to the site) |

Mickie,
How ya' doin', Kiddo? This site is too, too cool! Thanks so much for the link. I'll be playing with this later tonight. I need to figure out how to add it also. -- Royce A day hemmed in prayer is less likely to unravel. "..Mickie Swall.." wrote in message ...

Mickie (usual disclaimer, no connection whatsoever to the site) ....no idea - I'm far too busy drooling over the cardinal pattern you did for Quiltmaker - finally got my copy yesterday here in the UK! Very nice - and I love the red border fabric - is that from Hoffman or P&B?

Not exactly sure..........but........after you download them wouldn't you
move them to your font folder? I have a font folder under the windows folder. Ann http://community.webshots.com/user/mrs_ducky "..Mickie Swall.." wrote in message ...

What kind of operating system do you have?
Here's what you do with Windows XP... And you need to have WinZip in order to open the downloaded file... Click "Download Font" Save the file somewhere on your computer that you will be able to get to later... i.e. c:\ After it is finished downloading, go to that directory through Windows Explorer. Double click on the file to open it. Double click on the .ttf file listed. A window opens showing the "font" in different sizes and the font installs automatically. Next time you open Word, select Square Boxes and the font and play around with it! Hope that helps... Cappy "..Mickie Swall.." wrote in message ...

FYI -- to download ANY font from fontsnthings.com (they also have some great
holiday fonts, a cross stitch font... check out candy cane... ) download the file -- pay attention to where it goes -- you need to find it. go to the file -- and double click it (you do need WinZip or a comparable application to open the compressed file -- you can get winzip at www.winzip.com for free) once it opens - -you need to copy the ttf file (not the readme or txt file) to the Fonts Folder found under C:\Windows Once the ttf file is in the Fonts folder -- you should have that font appear in all of your applications! Have fun -- there are some great free fonts there! Kate in Michigan "..Mickie Swall.." wrote in message ...

Ok, I got them into WordPerfect! (I have WIN-XP)
Thanks so much..... A note here - the key types in a block, the shift key puts that block on point! What a neat trick! Just think, now we can decorate our plain old emails and guild newsletters with neat little quilt blocks! Mickie "Cappy" cappy_p @ juno.com wrote in message ...
