I also don't care what fabric I use as long as I like it. I love to quilt my own quilts( OH sorry did have my DD2's Bargello done because I did not what to ruin it)It is fun to try different designs.Even if they are NOT perfect. I am about enjoyment to sew and read my friends blogs.<br />I am delighted that you have choosen me as one of your friends. <br />Hugz<br />MariaMariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15151975887674467122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3921171226301168700.post-88319645751383459582011-05-19T10:59:38.044-04:002011-05-19T10:59:38.044-04:00I think many bloggers have been feeling the same w...I think many bloggers have been feeling the same way. I know I have. At one point I was sucked in and began worrying about what/how I blog and the type of quilts that I make. Then I gave myself a reality check. I had to remember that I buy the fabric that I enjoy and can afford. I make quilts that I enjoy or that my family/friends would enjoy. I quilt because it makes me happy and relaxes me. <br /><br />Every couple months I go through my reader and delete blogs that no longer make me happy when I read them. Life is too short to be around a bunch of negativity all the time. Geez...sometimes it feels like high school all over again lol.<br /><br />Down with the quilt police!! :)Robin (RsIslandCrafts)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06875986169322073281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3921171226301168700.post-14990071861772668342011-05-17T21:53:11.405-04:002011-05-17T21:53:11.405-04:00A very interesting posting Marie and I think you w...A very interesting posting Marie and I think you will find that others feel the same way. Blogging should be fun and not a competition. Do what you love. After all, this is the only way you are going to connect with others that share the same interests.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15438742462644374831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3921171226301168700.post-44592091179389972282011-05-16T14:30:37.644-04:002011-05-16T14:30:37.644-04:00I missed you!

I LOVE what you've done with your blog and...in bigger news...I'm happy to say I'm in the middle of sewing my first quilt (YAY!) WHOO, do I admire you and your craft because I'm sewing a simple patchwork quilt (all 8x8 squares) and I swear it will be my undoing. Not all of my rows are lining up nicely and I accidentally sewed a row to the wrong side of the project. Yeeep, wonderful, huh? Well I really have missed you and sorry it's taken me so long to welcome you back!Alyssa S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11674708702014878064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3921171226301168700.post-85675200711731415942011-05-16T12:06:37.840-04:002011-05-16T12:06:37.840-04:00Yes, I am glad you are back and will be doing what...Yes, I am glad you are back and will be doing what you enjoy. That is what matters. Do what makes you happy. I sort of went through the same thing when I first started blogging and then I just thought it is my blog and I am doing this for fun. I really like the new header. Great job. I love the tree quilt.Carrie P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10063988589711911820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3921171226301168700.post-63587726294768112102011-05-15T16:32:32.228-04:002011-05-15T16:32:32.228-04:00I like your style!

I mix WalMart fabric with designer fabric, and I don't care who knows it. I sew for me and for those I love. blessings, marleneStitchinByTheLakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04501479854150315011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3921171226301168700.post-37380955264192137372011-05-11T16:09:05.602-04:002011-05-11T16:09:05.602-04:00YaY!

First I wasn't using designer fabric and then I wasn't recycling instead of using new fabric and I wasn't having a giveaway every month...and the list goes on. It is astonishing how much perfectionism and snobbishness there is. I also cleaned up my blog list and still if I follow a blog and recognize those tendencies, I unfollow right away. I am so happy you are back!!! And I love the new look!!! Can't wait to see what you have been working on!<br /><br />Happy Mother's Day!!

I would love to share this journey with you.<br /><br />Don't ever think that I think I am better'n anyone, I am not! LOL. That is for sure! I am pretty normal, well, normal may not be the right word! <br /><br />We are just friends who love to quilt and do it on a blog! <br /><br />I have an idea for an art project that you may want to join me in. It needs to ferment in my mind a little longer, then we can see if it will fly!<br /><br />glen: love that you are BACK!
