Acronyms
 
I feel pretty dumb, but some of the acronyms are confusing. Is there a list somewhere?

There are several lists if you use the search feature.

Don't worry, I think we all went through the "what the heck?" moment at one time or other.

Don't feel dumb at all. I don't know many at all either.

Here is a list I found:

Check also on abbreviations.

We've had a few threads about them too....some enlightening and some down right hysterical.

Here is the short list I could think of on the fly:


FMQ - free motion quilting
WIP - work in progress
PIGS - project in grocery sacks.

Then of course, for fun, someone mentioned the whipped pigs and we kinda digressed from there.

D9P - Disappearing 9 Patch
OBW - One block wonder, like those kaleidescope blocks.


Those are the ones I can think of for now. Hope this helps.

I still have to think about some of the ones used here.
