Whoever put this list together, many, many thanks.

You are most welcome!
As is everyone else!!

QUILTS --- quaint unique individuals loving to sew. I would say 'quiet' but that does not work for this group.

ty i have been looking for them

Thanks, am new to the post and was having some trouble deciphering. appreciate this.

Is there anyway to save this as a reference. I've been around quilting for awhile but I still find myself guessing somethings. Many thanks for putting this together.

You're welcome!
Sure ... there's lots of ways.
* print it out as is
* print it out, using the option at the top of this page, under Thread Tools
* cut and paste it into a file in another program you use
* create a shortcut to leave it as an icon on your desktop
........ and I'm sure others can give more suggestions.

By no means is the list complete!

Man! What a list! But it useful. Thanks.

Great list! Thanks for taking the time QuiltE! I'm too old for tests Erstan.

I know what you mean ... and know how frustrated I was when I first started and was seeing all the alphabet soup. Believe me, I had some creative versions ... that were oh so wrong!

As I see more I am adding them to my master list ... please add any that are not on this list, in a post below.

At some point, we'll have to start a new thread with the new and improved listing.

A new one, not on the list .... PUPs .... Poor Unforgettable Projects.
I have lots of PUPpies! :)

Do you have

WWIT on your list?

What Was I Thinking?

Occasionally I do

DFS things

Dumb Foolish Stupid is the cleaned up version

or if one really want to beat oneself up

DIFS - Dumb Idiotic Foolish Stupid

Yes ... Post #1, fifth last on the list!

And when those PUPpies grown up, they become what else but ? ..... DOGS

DOGS = Done, Obviously Got Sewn

:d :d :d !!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is awwome...Thanks for the info:thumbup:

Another definition for PUPs

Pitiful Ugly Projects

that go into the WWIT (What Was I Thinking?) pile

or into a

CAST pile - Can Anyone Salvage This???

Thanks for the additions ... I keep adding them to my master list and at some point, we'll start a new thread with the inclusions.

Anyone with more acronyms or quilt'isms to add ... please do share and post! :)

Some of my favorites can't be used here!!

It is nice having a consolidated list - thank you for doing that.

I won't say 'complete' list - because I don't think that is possible.

quilte thank you so much i know i had to ask a few times what this or that meant so you have no idea how much i appreciate you posting this. there is sometimes i have no idea what is being said. lol i am going to print this off so i can learn and understand what is being said. again thanks

CHAOS - Can't Have Anyone Over Syndrome

Bear ... good one! Already added to my list.

HGrammie ... glad it helps! I think we've all had times where we wondered what the alphabet soup was all about. And that's not just in our early days here on the Board. Sometimes, just stop and think oh what makes sense here ... and it comes to you!

Someone else came up with this one:
Y A A W N

You Are Always Welcome Now

Thank you very very much for this. I am new to quilting and to this site. I worry sometimes I will survive but I think all I have to do is reach out and ask for help and most of you all will come a typing....LOL

Ladibug

I don't think this should be asked here, but I don't know where else to ask. What does
Row Robin and
FWS Pony Club mean?

Thanks for the explanation.

thanks for the list, I was in need of it, lol :)

I just love this site, I have learned so much.

I have one I haven't seen elsewhere -

GOL - grumbling/griping out loud

But has it ever been used, anywhere? :)

Now it has - on the Quilting Board - by me!

Thank you, so much, for taking the time to organize this for all of us! I can't tell you how many times I've seen abbreviations and had no clue as to what they meant.

Priceless!!!

WOW I printed this !:thumbup:

Being new to quilting properly, I sometimes am lost when talking with other more experienced quilters. This helps!
