I love Pinterest. I wish it was around 30-40 years ago when I was young and could do many of the projects I see. I can spend hours on it. (I set a timer so I will not stay on for hours). I would rather be on Pinterest than facebook. I forget about facebook and end up only going on once every couple weeks, Pinterest I go to someone's board every day.

It's easy to set up a new Board for yourself. Just select "Repin" when you like something and then if it is something (Example : a Wallhanging ) and you may want a Board where you can pin just Wallhangings--then you select "Create Board" and type in "Wallhanging" and now select "Pin" and that should have now pinned that picture you selected to Repin--to a Board you just created that is called "Wallhangings". It's easy once you get going on it. And it is very addicting!

I actually like the emails that tells me who has pinned something from my Boards. I then go into their Boards to see if I want to follow any of their Boards. I do long arm quilting for others so am constantly looking for quilting ideas and pinning ideas to my Boards. I like to follow people who have the same quilting style as me. I also follow Craft Boards, too.

I love Pintrest too. I use it to hold quilt, knit and crochet patterns I find. Also other things, but I like to use it instead of bookmarks because it has the picture of the item. I think you'll really like it when you get the hang of it.

I love Pinterest too--I enjoy seeing all the quilts people make and repinning them so those who follow me can see them and I can check out what the people I am following are pinning. I see what my granddaughter pins--mostly house decorating pictures and tips.

Love Pinterest, it saves me from printing patterns/instructions for things I want to make. I just keep them on my boards, I spend way to much time there finding things that I want to do. People can follow up or you can follow other people.
