I LOVE Pinterest and have used it for tons of quilting ideas, Knitting and Crochet ideas, Christmas and other holiday decorating ideas, home décor, craft ideas, Featherweight information, and amazing other stuff. Sometimes when I'm looking for a free pattern, I can find it on Pinterest. To me, Pinterest is more like a specialized Google because everything is already categorized for you. It makes it much easier to research and find what you're looking for. You can find the BEST recipes there also. I also do Facebook and am on there several times a day. I keep in touch with family members who live out of town, former students I taught and their families and friends who have moved away or just faded out of my daily life. I've had people contact me that I haven't seen in over 25 years. I love it!!!
