I am a very visual person; so it makes it quite difficult for me to chose fabrics for quilt projects on my own.

Since I'm still fairly new to quilting, it certainly helps me to have pictures, or better yet, a tutorial on-line so I can see what/how its being done.

I also need a picture, without it I am lost as to which colors I should use in a quilt.

I tend to rely more on the picture than the written. I'll read it to get sizes of pieces, then I totally go by the picture.

I am a visual learner. I need pics.

Visual for me too..I need pics.....

Gotta have a picture! Without one, I cannot overcome my inability to get things WRONG! Because I am excellent at getting stuff sewn where & how it ought not to be, I have to check and re-check everything before I sew. I can't do it without the aid of a picture.

Really interesting post! Do we like pictures (visuals) in directions because we are quilters, or are we quilters because we are visually oriented?

Visual and hands on for the most part.

If someone is really good at instructions, then I can follow fine. If they are not, I loose interest real quick.

Definitely a visual person. also need instructions. I admire anyone that can produce just from a picture.
