I am running out of these when I look at the pictures. I don't want to keep saying the same thing. Anyone else feel like this?

YES! I always feel like either I'm copying everyone else or that I sound like a broken record but they are either beautiful, awesome or cute!

Well, think about it this way. Everyone that posts a picture would love to see comments about her/his work. She/he doesn't care that you said that the last 15 quilt pictures you looked at you said "Beautiful"
Though it is nice when you post a picture to have someone print out something individual about your quilt.
I understand about looking at so many and having time to even comment on them.

There's always a thesaurus! For example, from one I found online, I looked up "stunning" ...

beauteous, bonny, brilliant, comely, dazzling, devastating, excellent, fair, famous, fine, first-class*, first-rate, gorgeous, great, handsome, heavenly, impressive, lovely, number one, out of this world, pretty, ravishing, remarkable, royal, sensational, smashing, spectacular, striking, superior, top, wonderful

I'd accept any of those adjectives if said about one of my quilts, wouldn't you? ... well, except maybe "devastating!"

Whenever possible, I try to comment on one specific thing about the quilt that I really like-color, pattern, quilting, whatever caught my eye.

Shall we start a list and see how many we can come up with?

Eye-catching
Unique
Special
Super
Brilliant (for the Aussies)
Fabulous....

Oops, cat beat me to it!

We could number them so that we just have to type the appropriate number for out "reply"!

Truly, yes I have the same problem but love to hear them 15 times over if its MY work!
