    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’.

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

    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.
