Abigail Sheridan de Graaff wrote a new post, cut&alter : Do you Instagram? 8 years, 3 months ago
So let’s talk about Instagram, aka IG, aka insta – what is it and how do you use? And more to the point would you want to?
An item made for a swap on IG
In basic terms Instagram is a photo sharing social med…

What a timely post! I’ve been thinking about IG for a little while but have been dithering but your post may have given me the nudge…
-
Here’s hoping the nudge works 😉 If you do set up an account there is now a thread on the FB page for you to put your name in – or alternatively let me know here 🙂

Great piece for people thinking about becoming part of the Insta community. Have to admit I’m a total IG addict, it’s certainly my favourite social media app.
-
Thanks Amy – I thought all social media apps were created equally but no!!!

I’m ruthquilts on Instagram. I have to say that I don’t like or use it very much as I’m a desktop PC girl at heart.
-
Found you Ruth! n Whilst it is a mobile phone app you can look at feeds and comment whilst on the desktop – not sure if you knew that? But you can’t add photos from the desktop.

I’m corinnecurtis12. I’m an erratic IG’er but like the way I can IG with photos straight from my phone, and share the post directly onto my facebook page. I don’t use mobile data, so my IG posts when I am out and about just sit in my phone until I get to a wifi connections. Next step is to join an instagram QAL I think.
-
Hi Corinne – my use of IG directly increased when I got a package that had date included. I know of one QAL just about to start #thecommunitysampler run by Sharon Holland and Maureen Cracknell. Intro post was last week and it’s all free!

If you use Instagram to share photos of your sewing makes, please do add the tag #ukqu I like Instagram, it is a super informal shared photo album. One enjoyable trend on Instagram to follow is the #saturdaynightcraftalong. Hope to see you in IG x pollyanna012
-
Morning Anne – just requested to follow on IG! The #saturdaynightcraftalong is a wonderful community isn’t it? I will do a post about that next weekeend 🙂

I’ve used Instagram for some time but not aware there was and IG feed for UKQU but will go over and follow. I’ve used my feed for various things not just quilting, and sometimes link posts to Facebook.
Still getting used to UKQU website and remembering to visit this from time to time.-
Found you! The UKQU feed is relatively new and just being promoted now and will hopefully become an additional community for the UKQU members.

Val Brooks wrote a new post, A quick way to check you are sewing a 1/4 inch seam 8 years, 3 months ago
Now be honest, after spending loads of time piecing fabric to make a quilt top, have you ever found matching your blocks difficult and you realise it is because your measurements were slightly out? It happens to all…

Excellent suggestion. I have 3 machines and they all have 1/4″ feet and they are all different size!!!!!

Thanks Sue! It’s amazing that there is such a variation, isn’t it? Always best to check I’ve now learnt!

I’m definitely going to try this out. So simple too.

Wondering how much fabric you need to back your quilt? – try this one found by Ruth Burns Warren.
