I so appreciate the hints and tips shared on blogs. I have studied and used your tutorials on how to sew blocks together in a web, spiral quilting, and no-tails bindings.

Congratulations, Linda, for persevering on both counts :-) I really admire the way you make the time to blog so regularly, and can only dream of being as consistent myself one day. Being time-poor, Instagram is my go-to site for inspiration, and I love swiping through and enjoying all the eye-candy. However, if something special catches my eye on IG, then I'll often look for a link to that quilter's blog or website for a tutorial, a pattern or more information. Nothing too wordy, though. What can I say? I like pretty pictures! :-)Dihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13889316253491109814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1876048627096284071.post-85224000758298656122019-01-27T23:18:18.130-05:002019-01-27T23:18:18.130-05:00I have been following you for years and remember w...I have been following you for years and remember when you moved to The Villages. At that time, I had no idea I would also end up in Florida (Tallahassee). I don't know if you are familiar with Dee Henderson books, but she is my hands down favorite. I think I have read every one of her books and I wish there were more!

I love to hear the stories of people's lives and what inspires their creations. I'm dying to try out Painter's Palette Fabrics. Their colors are so beautiful!<br />Congratulations on your 10 years of blogging! BTW, what is it that motivates you to keep blogging?

I also like that you are a Christian, and your blog name. I've been following you since you lived in Iowas as I do also but in Cedar Rapids area.

I clicked on the link above to read your first ever post, and MANY, MANY hours later, I am hanging a bookmark halfway through 2010, to be revisited soon! Your posts are FILLED with the things I love to find in a blog: creative quilt making, interesting tutorials, learning about you personally, above and beyond your quilting talents, and the many links you provide, to direct us to new blogs and interesting content. Thank you, Linda, for the many enjoyable hours, both today (when I should have been finishing my own projects, but preferred watching you snuggle baby Tay) and for the last bunch of years I have been enjoying your blog, learning from your expertise, and challenging myself to attempt some of your many, MANY projects! I look forward to reading for many decades to come!!Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06224578331574401984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1876048627096284071.post-45243232061940462019-01-27T17:15:31.852-05:002019-01-27T17:15:31.852-05:00Congratulations.

I enjoy seeing what others have created especially since I struggle to find time to sew quilts (not much dressmaking for children happening!). I'm not on Instagram. And as to what to listen to while sewing, check out Just Wanna Quilt on iTunes (podcast).

So any new trick, new tool, new way, new fabric, new pattern whatever is out there. I am in a remote area so I count on blogs to keep me up to date. I rarely listen to books because I get so involved in the book I forget what I am sewing.
