I save things to Pinterest all the time, but I find I rarely get around to going back to see what I've pinned. It seems like there're always new things to look at. So I'm not sure how much inspiration I'm really getting from Pinterest, although I enjoy it.

Both are crazy! I am amazed/inspired/envious of all the creative juices I see flowing on both the sites. The thing I really love is to see the unusual color combos. Things I would never have dreamed to put together. I agree with you that there is no way I will live long enough to make a dent in my projects to do list. But, daily I thank all of you for all the inspiration.

I'm on this board at least 5 days out of a week lurking and looking about. I pin things on PInterest and that's about it. I saved a lot of things in favorites and thank goodness for alphabetical order or knowing just about where it is I'm looking for.

Pinterest definitely.

I'm fairly new to the quilting world, so Pinterest has really been a starting point for me. My first quilt (not finished yet) was a pattern I saw on Pinterest. Although, my points aren't exact, I do think the top came out fairly good for a first try. I only know what I've read on there and on here. To be honest, it's overwhelming, but I love it !

This board is , hands down, my absolute favorite. All of you are my inspiration. So many fantastic ideas, patterns, & knowledge. Someone always has answers for you if you run into a snag.

I have yet to figure out how to navigate Pinterest - so the QB is my attention-getter.

Ditto, for me.

Sometimes I can spend hours on the computer and not even realize it. I must have ADHD, because I can get so distracted that I don't get things done that I am suppose to do. When I worked, I got more done in less time. Retired, I get a whole lot less done. In fact, sometimes I feel like Jell-O, taken out of its mold, sitting on a plate on a warm day.

I have way too many "I want to make or try." Here, various quilting blogs, Pinterest, magazines.

Pinterest is cold and impersonal. The QB is warm and inviting. Guess which I prefer?

I don't like pintrest can't figure out how to navigate and don't like that I have to have a sign in account just to look. I google search most, and then there are the images here, and a couple of face book quilt groups I'm in.
