I've been blogging now for just over 2 years and this marks my 200th post.
As milestones often do, It's got me thinking about why I blog in the first place. I see several other bloggers talking about forgetting to blog now that they are on instagram -- I get it, but i still really like blogging, I like the stories behind the quilts. Also I like blogging because it's a good way for me to keep up with all my ongoing lists of projects and it serves as an excellent source for reflection at the end of the year to see where all I have come and the new things I have tried along the way. It's a better resource for me to keep up with my UFO's and ongoing deadlines, I usually keep a draft post going for this very thing -- I haven't figured out a way to do that with a picture yet.
I don't have a huge reader base and I'm OK with that, it gives me plenty of time to really reply to those of you that do read and comment and I get to know guys better. So in honor and appreciation of you guys I'm going to do something new -- a give away. It'll be my Happy 2 years, 200 posts and you guys are great all rolled into one.
So I pulled together some really great things that I love and want to pass along to one of my lovely readers.
Happy Quilting Everyone!! I've got lots of new finishes to show you all soon.
Congratulations on your two milestones! You have come so far in your two years, be proud! I follow with GFC from NY.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! I am a follower and I love hearing about all the swaps your in (I am still trying to decide if I should try one)
ReplyDeletehave you tried the quick curve ruler? I picked one up during the holiday sales and I am still trying to figure how to use it
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your milestone. I follow on bloglovin. I am from Vancouver, BC. I love my quilting gloves, they keep my hands from getting fatigued while quilting.
ReplyDeleteI have been enjoying your blog for about a year. I am glad you have continued to blog. My favorite notion is scent-free Best Press. I love it.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the milestone and thank you so much for the giveaway! I follow you on Bloglovin' and I'm from Montreal, Quebec. :-)
ReplyDeleteI just came across your blog and I'm looking forward to reading your future posts. I enjoy reading about what others are up to and seeing all of the creativity out there. I've just starting quilting, so I don't really know that I have a favorite tool/pattern/notion just yet. But what I do love is organization and the 'Really Useful Boxes' 6.5 litre container is just perfect for storing all of my fat quarters in. I have 4 of them now and they are almost completely full.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 2 years, 200 posts. I follow you on IG but now I follow you here too. My favourite tutorial is the open wide zippy pouch by Noodle-head. You should check out canadianabroad she is a great blogger who also quilts and cooks.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on two years and 200 posts! I'm a new follower via BlogLovin, GFC and IG. That's how I found you was on Instagram. My favorite notion is my 6 1/2" X 2 1/2" ruler. I love it as it's small enough to fit in my project bag that I take with me and I also love the width is more than one inch. In fact I have three rulers, hehe.
ReplyDeleteThank you for a super giveaway and a chance to win.

Congrats Katie! I will never stop loving my glue basting! :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. 200 in 2 years is great consistency! The notion I most recently bought more of was pinmoors. Have you used them for basting a quilt? I like being able to use straight pins... fast and easy to remove while free motion quilting! (I'm following you on bloglovin and we're in Stash Bee together.)
ReplyDeleteIt's been fun following you by email...looking forward to many more posts. I love in Pennsylvania. My favorite notions right now are Wonder Clips. They are so cute and easy to use when a pin just won't do the trick.
ReplyDeleteWhoo hoo girl! Huge congratulations. I can't wait to see what is next and of course, you know where I live. :)
