Pinterest as an ideas board
 

I don't know why I haven't thought of this before: I'm planning a quilt which will need careful block and colour selection, and I've started a Pinterest board to collect pictures that feed my ideas and explorations. It's a really useful record and very inspiring. I may go on to use it to record the making of the quilt.

Good Idea!

I am a "newbie" to Pinterest and have been pinning lots of quilts that I like to my "quilt board". When I went back to look at the quilts that I had pinned, I realized that almost all of them have a lot of white in them.

...so you have discovered that you like quilts with lots of white I them.........

One of the things I like about Pinterest is it can reveal things about your tastes that you hadn't quite realised. I noticed that my home decor board was full of neutral -coloured , tidy spaces. My house isn't! I'm now beginning to make changes and I love it!

I use Pinterest the same way. I had been a member many months before I finally learned how to use it and now I would hate to be without it.

Pinterest is dangerous!!! Lol

It's very Pinteresting! :D

I pin a LOT for ideas. I have 6 or 7 boards just for quilting alone. I've gone back to my boards a lot when I'm looking for a project. I love it.

I guess I'm not as smart as you need to be to understand how Pinterest works............I never have figured out how to use it myself.
