Learning Curve with Photography

It is cold and snowy here in Pa.  Time to work with my camera.  So I took 2 pictures of a faux trapunto piece. I took one (really many photos) in auto and manual mode. 

I believe these are both the automatic button on my cannon.
Not sure what I did here

Momma Pickles needs more practice!
Oh look what is in my longarm room.  An exercise trampoline!!

gotta go work out!!
