Hi flowerfeathers,

Re: Summer Sewing with Linen
The problem might be with the actual dimensions of your photo rather than in the file size. The photo needs to be between 400px and 1,200px in width and height in order to upload.

You can certainly post your project. When we refer to something as being unpublished we mean professionally published for payment. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Re: Find Your Best Silhouette
In the caption for the blank grid there should be a click to enlarge link. I have also added a link within the body of the article to find the large version of the blank grid.
