Default Quilter's Code

Help please!
I need the list of the quilters code words -
WIP - work I progress
PHD - project half done
Bag quilt - everything's in the paper bag

I know there's several lists out there but I can't find them & I need them for my quilt project for the 4-Hers.

Can you help? Please?

It’s listed on Pinterest under ‘Quilters Acronyms’.

Quite a few of them are in this post/thread:

That thread used to be at the top of the Main listing with a sticky,
but at some point it was de-sticky'd!

My list has grown even longer since then .......
I just keep adding as I see new ones.

I had to do an "advanced search" to find it again.

Bearisgray, could you do a post explaining how to do a search please? I can search on Goggle but here... problematic.

But thanks!

In this case, I knew that QuiltE had compiled the list and that "acronyms" was in the post.

1) Click on "Advanced Search"

2) Fill in the blanks on the page that comes up and click "Search Now"

3) Hope that what you are looking for comes up, and click on that thread.
