Quiltingboard Forums - View Single Post - Subject lines---would anyone else find them to be more helpful if they were longer such as the one I'm posting now? I'm continuing to type here in the subject line just to give us all a feel for how much room we have on a title line for a new topic.

"Question" is not a good title. "I have a question" is not a good title. "Look at my new toy" is not a good title.

"Mitered corners..need help" is a good title

"Featherweight..my new toy" is a good title

Our search function would be more useful if the titles had some meaning.

One last thing...please when you post a picture of your quilt, include the name of the pattern or even post a link to the pattern to avoid pages and pages of people asking "What pattern did you use?"

Okay, I must be cranky..so I'll stop now. :roll:

Ditto to everything you said. One other thing I find really annoying is when someone posts that they're searching for a specific pattern or fabric and people respond that they DON'T have it. Why bother posting that?
