AMEN SISTER!!!!!! You can post the answer and the NEXT post will ask the information. :hunf: I say if you can't be bothered to read the previous posts to see if the question was answered, you don't deserve an answer. And if you "...just don't have time to read every post..." don't ask.

Well, the NEXT post was often being written at the same time as the one before it. I often write a comment, answer, or praise, only to see that another post (saying the same thing I just said), got thru first. I would love to see size, technique, and pattern or inspiration included with apic, but I'll be happy to have the pretty pics alone if that's all the quilter has the time/inclination to post.

This has been asked before and is a terrific idea. Let's focus on the positive and try to do this.Instead of saying to heck with it right from the get go. Speaking for myself this helps greatly. I have horrible ADD and am even medicated to function .( Was misdiagnosed for years as depression,finally found a doc that would listen) For me sometimes when I see a post with say 6-7 pages my mind goes into overdrive. It is not that I wont take time to read the post Because I do very often. It would just save a lot of frustration.

I can't think of a quilt I have made that has a pattern - all just traditional blocks or my own ideas.

When this is the case if you just say that it is an original it would cover the need to ask the questions. And to the poster who said they don't want to be asked about it, I consider it a compliment to the poster to stir someone enough to want to make one for themselves. MHO
