    Default For those of you that use Facebook - have a question

    I was wondering if any of you post pictures of your quilts on Facebook. I've had an account for 6 years and realized I've only every posted picture of a quilt once. I thought about joining a group on Facebook related to quilts and it said "If you don't have any postings related to quilting on your home page, you will not be able to join". That's when I realized my only quilt posting was 4 years ago - picture of my great niece sleeping on her quilt I made. She was two months old. Made me wonder if others posted pictures of their quilts on Facebook with any regularity.

    I post a picture whenever I finish a quilt. I even created an album a while back, but only my FB friends can see it.

    I also usually post a picture when I finish a quilt, which is not very often these days!!

    I post lots of them there. I often have friends donate fabric for my charity quilts and they love seeing it used.

    I usually show a picture of the flimsy...because goodness knows when I'll get it quilted...but my friends don't seem to mind...if they do, they're too polite to say anything. Now if I ever get the stack of 'flimsies' quilted......

    I post most of my quilts on FB just so I can share with my cousins and such. I joined one quilting related group on FB and the notification postings overtook my time line to the point that I had to opt out.

    Put a picture of a quilt as your avatar. That will satisfy the quilt pic needed. Then you can change it back. I know the group and that's what I did to join. I seldom post pics of my quilts. You can choose if you want notifications, if you want to visit the page to read posts or have them sent to your page. Most get confused about Facebook settings and get overwhelmed.

    I post pictures on several quilt sites on FB. There was no requirement of having posted a quilting picture.

    I have posted photos of quilts on FB to show more friends and family members. My profile picture is of a quilt I made.
