The Wonder of Blogging

I've been totally seduced by blogging. I think it's accurate to say it has changed my life.

I've found it to be the diary I have never been good at keeping on paper. This blog has meant a lot to me since I started it 8 years ago. It's been my own record of projects and collecting over those years. It's been such a wonderful way to connect with so many of you that feel like I do about quilts. My kindred spirits! I am so happy to know you.

These days I turn more of my energies to personal blogging. Several of these are pretty private:

  • I keep a blog about our home, recording events, things we have seen (sunsets, bee swarms), a record of when flowers bloom ...

  • I keep a blog of my time with my parents and the amazing things I learn as they cope with decline.

  • I also keep a scrapbook type blog - pictures mostly - of my new hobby, mosaic.

So if entries in this blog seem a bit infrequent, that is why. I suspect I will be back to this blog when some of those current interests wane.

  1. Well...I agree...I started my quilting blog a number of years ago as a diary of my quilts and antique quilt collection...When my mother declined, I added a bit about that. When my husband was diagnosed with ALS and my son and his wife were arrested for Heroin...giving me three young grands to raise...wow..I began..to make my quilting blog a therapy blog...the best thing I ever did...It is a whole new life.
