    Default A tip when searching QB

    For those that have a difficult time finding a specific item in QB search function try this:

    Open Google search engine

    Type in quilting board and then type in what your trying to find (example : quilting board log cabin quilts) and presto you have all the threads that have that information.

    Thanks so much. I will certainly give this a try because I am one of those people that have a problem doing searches on the board.

    To narrow it down even more, You can add the name.

    Example:

    Quiltingboard bearisgray orange yellow

    Sometimes it works
