    So many of you have posted pictures of wonderful quilts.

    The frustrating part now for me is to find "a certain one" again - especially if I didn't think/remember to bookmark it at the time.

    I would like to see each quilt have it's "own" topic - with a name/description of it in the title:

    Examples: Green and yellow fairy quilt for my DGD

    Crazy Log Cabin in limes and purples

    OBW - for SIL - virgin fabric was petunias

    The reason for the suggestion - I want to be able to find it again so I can look at it some more!

    The search feature isn't much help when the title is something like: Another one of my quilts - - - Here's what I've been working on - - - It's Done! - - - -

    The topic of using more descriptive/complete topic lines has come up many times.

    One can always hope????

    I agree, many times I have wished the search feature could check the content of the post, and bookmarks fills up way too quickly! Now we all just need to remember this when we're composing our posts :)

    I try to do that..but many times when I post I don't know what the actual name of the pattern is. SO I make up one.
    If it is my own quilt I always put the name...I also try to put as many details as I can on the post.
    I agree...when I do a search for something we only see a fraction of what has actually been posted....
