To me blogging isn't work but we all have our different ways. I take a lot of photos, put them on the computer and see what I have and go from there and chat about my day - but I know some really need to think about it - maybe too much thinking and just write about your day and what you quilted?

And I like to go around with my tiny camera and come home and download the pictures, sort them out, choose the best ones for my blog. I also have Instagram account, but never use it; most of the time I "need" to say something more about the pictures. But may be I just have more time :-) :-)<br />xxRadkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04407639057505104281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5484254857238719582.post-28067757731311357972017-06-08T10:20:21.915-04:002017-06-08T10:20:21.915-04:00You already know what I think of your blog.

I enjoy reading your blogs and have essentially taught myself to quilt by reading posts by very generous bloggers. I learn so much more from reading bloggers' posts than from looking at pictures on instagram. I really appreciate the time and effort that regular bloggers spend on their posts. Posts are personal and interactive--real communication, not just a short hand version.

I prefer the blog posts because there is usually more info about what a person is working on. I realize that Instagram is quicker but sometimes quilters just post a picture of their quilts and not even a pattern name. It is good seeing a newsy post from you.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01816001950084090576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5484254857238719582.post-15209691406397118892017-06-06T08:17:32.526-04:002017-06-06T08:17:32.526-04:00oh and a beautiful quilt..........oh and a beautiful quilt..........Chookyblue......https://www.blogger.com/profile/03673183082274488600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5484254857238719582.post-60974465316218602142017-06-06T07:57:28.039-04:002017-06-06T07:57:28.039-04:00I do hope you keep blogging but you will also main...I do hope you keep blogging but you will also mainly get bloggers answering these question.....another friend basically asked the same thing a few days ago........she is continuing on blogging......<br />Blogging is not the same as IG or Fb and blogging is how I have connected with many...not just from the pics but also what they write.......just seeing a pic would not connect me to someone............<br />I do enjoy your blog and I hope you continue to blog...........Chookyblue......https://www.blogger.com/profile/03673183082274488600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5484254857238719582.post-17771564577105796232017-06-06T04:16:41.771-04:002017-06-06T04:16:41.771-04:00Hello LuAnn,

But I still enjoy it and I love reading other blogs such as your own.

There has been a decrease in posts from many bloggers I follow but I still love them! And as a fellow blogger, I have found I'm not blogging as often and have wondered if anyone is reading anymore but I still enjoy it so I guess I'll still write it. Please keep sharing bloggers!

I find I can spend considerable time reading blogs and catching up with all sorts of "quilty' people; it's enjoyable and inspirational. I find it admirable that you and many others share your skills and accomplishments online in a blog. But I have to admit I feel guilty; I could put the time to better use by spending that time sewing and quilting, creating items for loved ones. Thus, realizing what a time commitment you make in writing a blog, you must decide too is that really the best use of your time. So whatever you decide, I'm fine with your decision. I just went out and followed your instagram acct. Thanks!
