My quit picture on pintrest
 
A couple years ago I posted a picture of my Bargello on this board, giving anyone who ask the info of the pattern and the man who made the pattern. Last night I was on Pintrest and looked up Bargello quilts and there was a picture of my quilt from this quilting board. Just wondering if this has happened to anyone before?

Yes! I was looking at Pinterest last week for some St. Patrick's day inspiration and came across my wall hanging from 2014. It was pinned from this QB. Did it bother you? I was flattered that someone liked my creation! My best friend won't post any pictures of any quilts she makes. Wants to keep them private.

Lots of things end up on Pinterest from QB. Once a picture is out there on the net, it can turn up any where.

I've run across my works from the QB on Pinterest, also

I have a Pinterest account and a "Board" I call "Completed Quilts" where I post the quilts I have completed to separate from my "Bucket List". It's always strange when I do a search on Pinterest to see one of my quilts show up. I guess I am strange in that I post on Pinterest, have Facebook albums and Quilting Board albums. When I'm gone, I will still be here!

It has been a while but one of my quilts showed up there. It didn't bother me though..not really.

It's nice to inspire others with your works... I save ideas I like on Pinterest. Have pinned many quilts from the QB so I may be the culprit! :D Or one of many.

YES! We got a shock a few years ago! Look up 'tango'. You'll see my son and partner in a red Dress. They are both professional dancers, and this picture was used for poster for a Valentine's Day performance.

I have had my QB quilts show up on Pinterest as well. I was flattered.

And can you just imagine where all those cute family pics, conversations, etc. are floating around...and forever!

coopah 03-08-2017 09:33 AM

If you Google a topic about quilting, often conversations from this Board appear!! A word to the wise...!

cashs_mom 03-08-2017 09:47 AM

Yes! My jacket that I posted here ended up on Pinterest.

I was tickled pink the first time I saw a quilt of mine pinned in Pinterest! I have seen different ones of mine pinned, still tickles me! LOL

For sure...I have actually used Google to do a search on a topic I knew was on Quilting Board...found it easier than using the search function on the board itself.. A lot of extra stuff comes up when I use the search here, so google (including the topic and the words Quilting Board) works better for me.

yes some quilt blocks, a quilt and a pincushion i made that looks like a turkey

I have had quilts show up on Pinterest. Normally, I don't care, but one had my granddaughters' pictures on it. That bothered me, but after I got over it, I realized I was the culprit for posting their pictures anywhere, even on the QB.

nightquilter 03-08-2017 07:02 PM

I think shocked was how I felt also. I did not mind it to bad, except my daughters pictures were in that picture. I wish I had paid more attention to what was in that pic. I guess it is like someone said be careful what you share.

I was a bit shocked until I figured out how it got there. Then I wished it had my name on it. LOL

nightquilter 03-08-2017 07:21 PM

My daughters thought it was cool, then said Mom ,why didn't you have your name on it. HA HA.

carolynjo 03-09-2017 01:30 PM

I think that might bother me if it happened to me. I won't be posting any pics on the Board.

sewmom 03-09-2017 05:09 PM

I was on Pinterest searching under "quilts using a panel" and was scrolling along and there was a picture of a lighthouse quilt. And I said oh look there is a quilt like mine. O wait a minute, that's my bed that's my quilt! I was thrilled!
