Some Blogs I Read

I wish I knew how to add links to other blogs on my sidebar. If anyone can explain how to do this, I would be forever indebted. Maybe for now I can just put a link or two in my post. Like so many others, I have become totally addicted to reading blogs—I can’t even tell you how many I put in my favorites (dozens). I am always clicking on other’s links to find new ones. I get up very early (4:45am) and I check out blogs before I leave for work at about 6:15 a.m. It is amazing that I have never met any of these people, yet I feel like I am visiting a friend when I enter their cyber homes. I hope I do not need to ask permission before I post a site (I am not too sure of blog etiquette). I am assuming that if the blog is public, they are happy to have more visitors. If I mention your blog and you are not happy, please let me know and I will remove it.

One of my daily visits is Brit’s blog, Running Stitch.

Everything I know about Brit, I have gleaned from her blog. She is an energetic mom to “Mr. Moo” (her adorable baby boy) & wife to “The Man”, she quilts, she runs, she always has some project in the works (I do believe she and “The Man” are renovating their home). My take on Brit is that she is very fun-loving, creative, has a good sense of humor, and is a dedicated mom & wife. Her blog is a good read with a lot of pictures and she posts almost daily.

On Feb. 25, Dallas posted a pic of a very nice denim tote bag that she made. I loved it and took a moment to post a comment – I believe it was the first blog comment I ever made. I had just finished my denim quilt and her pic inspired a use for my left over squares. (I have not made it yet, but am still planning to). She is just learning to quilt and drives a very neat blue 1971 VW bus. She also posts frequently with pictures.

  1. Thanks for the write-up. I get so much inspiration from the various quilting blogs I read. I just wish I had more time to make them. Hopefully, my schedule will cool down a bit after graduation in May.

    I can affirm everything you said about Brit. She is amazing! Life is short and fleeting and I'm glad I get so spend it with her.

    Brit and I both caught the blogging bug at the same time after her roommate from college started a blog that chronicles the work they are doing on their home (http://www.aphramedia.com/blog/).

    Enjoy your blogging!

    SD (a.k.a. The Man)

I appreciate you taking the time and effort to leave a comment. I will try to answer any questions you have. Please note due to Blogger changing word verification so almost nobody can read it, I have had to change to no word verification and only allow registered users to comment.
