If you have time, please take a look and let me know what to do to make it interesting. I just figured out how to add photos, which was not easy for one of the technologically impaired. ------

Date: 10/27/11 9:18 AM I started one a few months ago. About sewing, quilting and embroidery. I just kinda of blog about what's on my mine about sewing etc and what I'm currently involved in. But not having a working digital camera cuts down on it somewhat as I have no pictures to show. Nice thing about blogging is you have your own personal soapbox to talk about whatever you want. ------

Date: 10/27/11 11:03 AM Do you have any suggestions for improvement on mine?
You're right, it is neat to just put down what is on my mind about the quilts and how I got to where I am today. ------

Date: 10/27/11 2:29 PM I enjoyed it..Your work is beautiful and I was interested in the stories behind the quilts. Years ago, I started quilting and quickly dropped it as accuracy is so not my strong point. Maybe some pointers on how you achieve that accuracy and how you managed the curves..Am I correct in thinking that you have lots of machines? Maybe do a machine of the week or month feature. But overall, it was interesting reading..Thank you and I will come back to it. ------

Per Mary's request, I posted a story today about my avatar, and how it was made with people-powered machines. ------

I've been adding pictures to mine as I go along. Mary has given me several good questions to answer, and good tips. ------

Date: 11/18/11 8:38 PM Great blog. Enjoyed reading the stories. Could really relate to indecision choosing from all the decorative stitches available now.
