I rarely ever buy fabric except with particular project in mind, so this isn't a problem with me. Oh, except for that one bundle of six coordinated half yard cuts that I've never found a pattern for. See, that's why I don't do it. I did love getting a bunch of fat quarters and half yard cuts from a friend who was moving and de-stashing though. It's so fun to make scrappy quilts with fabric you would never buy yourself, but that looks great in scrappies.

There is an issue. Now you need to be on a post for it to work. If you are just on the Perennial Forum homepage (or any other) it takes you to Advice. It was brought to my attention on The Hosta Forum.

Thanks for the responses folks - at least I don't feel personally slighted at not being able to read the rest of the pages. Kate, I'm accessing the site by a good old fashioned desktop computer, though mine is an Apple. There is no cache at all on Google Chrome since I only use it for one task at work that has a funky programming that requires Chrome, so there's no history there to clear out. I'm on GW now with Firefox on my desktop computer, and it's still doing the same thing it does on Chrome and Safari. Looks like there's not a simple answer to why some of us are having problems and some are not, since I'm not using anything modern or fancy. I haven't tried to access GW on my phone but the screen is so small I can't fathom any real reading or viewing on the phone for my poor old eyes. Sigh. I was happy that I was able to see and read messages with pictures fine, but only on the first page I guess. I wanted to hurry up and thank everyone for the input before this scrolls to page 2 and I can no longer see it. If anyone from Houzz has an explanation for this I'd be most grateful. There's no point in my trying to start a new post until this resolves for me, since I won't be able to see anything in response unless it's a very recent post. Cynthia

I have not had the notifications problems, but it’s sometimes difficult to post. The closer I am to my wireless source usually the better the load. It also has to do with your bandwidth And you have. Also, some times of the day are better than others. Agree with sherrygirl, evenings can be better. Also it could how old your iPad is. Sometimes if you have an old version it takes longer to do things or you stop being able to get software updates which make it easier. This is why I had to buy a new desktop, the one I had could not use any newer versions of Safari. Good luck!
