    I check Pinterest fairly regularly. I have gotten some great ideas from the pinners I follow and find all kinds of interesting patterns. The pinwheel quilt I made for my daughter was made from a photo (no pattern) she saw on Pinterest and told me about. I made it from the photo (pinwheels are not exactly rocket science, even for a beginner like me!) Keep looking if only for the ideas and for the fun of seeing what others are doing.

    Okay, I just went to Pinterest to see if they had a help page that I could link to and I spent 20 mins looking around! I'm on Pinterest at least every other day. It is like looking at magazines for me! So, I just did a google search for How to use Pinterest tutorial and came up with many sites and some videos. http://www.google.com/search?sourcei...75lllllllllll0

    Not all pins are for instructions. There are thousands of quilts that are original and all you're going to see is a picture of it. A lot of pins only go to a flicker page.

    I spend at least as much time on Pinterest as I do the board.

    Just the last couple of days, I've started using it after signing up months ago. It has really been a lot of fun since I've figured out how to use it. Now I understand why everyone is so crazy about it.
