Welcome to the Quilting Board!
is about as useful as saying
I'll meet you in New York City sometime.
There are several blocks that go by different names.
There are several names that have several blocks associated with them.
As far as that goes - if I see a block that I like - in most cases, I really do not need to know the name of it to make it.
Yup you said it! And it becomes really frustrating (and confusing) when you google a block name and come up with 2 or 3 different patterns.
Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down the their level and beat you with experience.
I also don't like the trend of quilt magazines taking a traditional pattern and renaming it! They should list the original name someplace on the page. I also wish someone would invent a site where you can draw a block and all the names for it will come up.like that's going to happen, right?
Someone did! On Google, pick the "Images" link, click the little camera to the right of the search box and it upload a picture. It will search for similar pictures.Originally Posted by Tartan

Also - to search for an image that is already on the internet (as opposed to uploading it from your computer): Click and drag the image you want into the search box, then click "images". It will find other websites where that image is posted.

Must not work on ipads. I don't get a camera icon.
If you always do, what you have always done, The results never change. Change is the wings you give yourself.
All I get is the Google home page. (The place where you type in where you want to go.)
