How to use Instagram - an easy guide

There is a lot of quilting action on Instagram. The app is primarily a photo-sharing platform, so it lends itself to sharing finished quilts, works in progress, publishing flyers about events, designers and manufacturers, shops displaying new stock and sales, and forming online 'groups' who are working on similar projects, so you can see what others are doing.

Several of our members are active Instagram users, some are quietly watching from the sidelines.and some are interested but don't know what it's all about yet. We are happy to share our experience hands-on, but here is an easy guide from CheatSheet, that will help you get started, in the absence of a 15 year old who can be your personal tutor. It begins with links for downloading the app appropriate for your device, and takes you step-by-step through the easy process of becoming an active Instagram-er.
