    I need pictures with patterns/directions. No picture, I will usually pass it by. How about you? Will you try something if you don't have a picture?

    I can do without pictures, but when I am teaching I need a lot of visual aids. If I can not make pictures to show I will have the same project at different stages so I can show what will the step look like when I am doing it.

    Yes, I'm a visual person. I can look at pictures of how something is done and do it much better than reading directions and figuring it out from that.

    Rarely would I try a pattern without a picture, so yes, I am a very visual person. Sometimes I will go by the picture even more than the instructions.

    throw the instructions out and give me very good pictures. If I can see how it is done I am good. And for get crazy quilting it is too crazy for me I need clean straight lines :)

    I don't HAVE to have it, but I certainly learn better visually! My recall is much, much better when I've "seen it." I love picture tutorials!
