Ditto on Sue's sentiments; once we post something here, it is on the wide open internet and accessible to anyone anytime. Thinking we can control usage of a picture after it is posted is not realistic. That being said, I LOVE it when I see my work "Pinned". It is indeed a compliment to me!

The fact is, once we've uploaded a picture of our quilt to QB it is totally accessible to EVERYONE (not just QB members).
