I know that when someone posts a picture of a block they have done, I can't tell if it is 2", 4" 6" 12" or what. Sometimes I would like to know how big that block is. Not that I would make it, although sometimes I would, I am just curious I guess. As far as a quilt if concerned, the whole thing, it doesn't matter to me if I know ho large or small it is.

I agree that knowing the dimensions of the project in a photo helps with perspective. It's not just to save for later, but to appreciate the work as well. Some people like really small quilts and a close up may give detail but no feel for size. If all you see is quilt, you can't tell the size without a some sort of gauge, like some online shops put coins next to the pattern to show the size of the design.

The fact is you can post a picture with explicit details and three posts later someone will ask for the pattern name. And if you forget and answer somebody's questions past the first page it doesn't get read anyway.
I can't read the red letters not because it's giant and red but because the font is all mushed together. I just scroll past.

this is very interesting. instead of wondering why people want to know, i wonder why people don't want to tell.
and quiltmakers like to think they're so kind and considerate. some people should rethink that.

point is, we have a right to ask on here without being humiliated for it. I personally have learned a great deal from other peoples questions.
