Hey. What's happening?
I have been bombarded with hundreds of bot comments from a data place and it takes quite a while to remove them, so I changed the commenting.
Anyway, watched Sully Stitches this evening and one of her previous finishes became a must have. How do I find it?
Most of you may already employ this search method. When I spot something in a photo, I right click, scroll the drop down menu, and then choose search with google lens, bingo.
But videos take more work. I watch floss tube and browse on my laptop. No phone, even the tablet is limiting compared to options and features on an operating system. So I stop the video, grab the tablet, and hit the Image Search button, taking a photo of the image on the laptop.
And that leads to this result of that search on the tablet or your android phone. Not sure how I-things work.
Some really old chart searches may not offer an answer, but most times I've been directed to what I need. I've also used this method to get info about old jewelry pieces and some decorative pieces.
The right click works on FB posts (avoids click bait recipes) and almost any photo or image, except on IG and videos. The image search icon in the address bar works for any photo you take online or not. I've identified bugs with it!
Just thought I'd mention this, may help in the hunt for a chart or design. Probably not anything you didn't already know but I got excited about finding that chart.
Have a good weekend.

I usually take a pic of the pattern when someone shows it and then do my searches. You provided a great idea to do it now. TFS This particular chart is in my wish list over at 123 stitch. I have had my eye in it for this Autumn. We must have the same taste. Janice
I knew about google lens, but hadn't thought about using it to find pattern names. Thanks for showing how you use it.
Thanks for the info! I have just recently downloaded Google lens but have yet to use it. You provided some useful info for me!
Happy Sunday from crappy weather northern Ohio that is not going to be any better for the next 10 days 😡

I have that pattern and need to get it stitched one of these days soon. Haven't seen Tara's finish but I bet it's good. (Sully Stitches is the only FT I watch...not often, but if I feel like I need an indulgement (why isn't that a word??), I do - and always end up with a slew more "wanna-stitches." And that search button has also gotten me into quite a bit of trouble. ;-) Temptations, temptations...so easily realized. I'm having problems with "Data Wizard" too, as are others. DRIVES ME CRAZY!!!! Stuff like that should be illegal.
