Do you know about PINTREST

I love this site. It allows me to pin ideas for things I like all in one place. Makes quilt planning fun and for me easier... find colors I like and just pin it to a board. Inspiration is put into collections.

If you are on pinterst let me know you pin name so I can friend you.

Yes, I love Pinterest. I use it to keep track of all sorts of things, including quilt projects that I want to do.

I have heard that there can be major problems with the pictures you 'pin' being illegally used. I don't know any details, but would advice anybody who uses Pinterest to check it out properly before getting too involved.

I love Pinterest! It appeals to the visual side of my brain. Nonnie, I'm SpiritsFold on Pinterest as well. See you there!

PC World magazine has an article on this very topic--might be a worthwhile read. Thank you, Lorchen, for raising the issue.

Very interesting - tearing pictures out of a magazine and putting it in an ideas scrap book is one thing, but copying and re-issuing a picture on the web, even if it is your 'scrap book' seems to be a whole different kettle of fish, legally
