    I was wondering if you like a pic that someone has posted and want to do one down the line somewhere in the near future will it still be on here or could you copy the pic and keep it as a reference later eg: folded dahila there are so many nice ones.

    I don't know the answer, but hope someone does as that's a good question.

    I just pulled the heart over to my favorites and saved it

    Also, if you see a picture you want to keep, you can put that picture in the middle of your screen and hit print/screen in the upper right hand side of your keyboard.
    Then go to your Paint program, Edit, paste. You can clean it up, crop it and save it to any folder you want.

    There is a tutorial for the folded dahlia:
    http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-116058-1.htm That you can bookmark for yourself. You can also bookmark any of the post with pictures you like.

    I right-click on a picture and do the "save image as" function and it'll download for you.

    I right click and save it in a folder called "quilt related" which includes PDFs and other instructions I want to keep. I've learned not to count on things being there later.

    Too many times I've gone back later and the pattern or picture have been pulled and I can't access them anymore.

    I usually rename the picture so I know what quilt it is.

    When I do this, in choosing a name for the picture, I use the name of the quilt shown, the date, the name of the board member and that they are QB [quiltingboard]. That way, I will know who to credit for the inspiration if I ever get to make a similar quilt.
