I've never blogged before. The addy is: http://www.quiltingthoughts.blogspot.com/ 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. ------ Pat in Rockport, TX "As ye sew, so shall ye rip." http://community.webshots.com/user/pknord http://www.quiltingthoughts.blogspot.com/

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. ------ quiltingwolf.blogspot.com

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. ------ Pat in Rockport, TX "As ye sew, so shall ye rip." http://community.webshots.com/user/pknord http://www.quiltingthoughts.blogspot.com/

I can't really recommend anything. I'm not a writer by any means so mine is all over the place. Mine is sewwolf's blog ------ quiltingwolf.blogspot.com

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. ------ 2009-113.25 yds 2010-115.5 2011-80.25+30+donated 2012 86.3 yds.. 2013 21.0 Everyone who sews seriously has a stockpile of fabrics, because it is natural to purchase more than can be sewn in any one season" Singer, Timesaving Sewing, 1987

Could really relate to indecision choosing from all the decorative stitches available now. What machine is the whale machine?
