It's been a long time since I wrote my first tentative blog post in 2009! Would anyone ever read what I wrote? Would anyone even be able to find me in the big wide world of the web? ... and if they did find me, would they come back and follow my stitching journey?
This is the Children's interactive toy quilt which had a sneak peak in my very first blog post:
Amazingly, statistics tell me that 88 people actually read my first blog post! The launch a couple of months later of my first free pattern, "What is Love?" table runner, brought in lots of new readers:
I reused the concept of that original free pattern and it was transformed into the "Love Never Fails" wall hanging with removable mini quilts and a bag in which to store them. It is one of my earlier designs but I still love it and the pattern is still available here.
You don't need to do a thing - the wonderful people at https://follow.it have been ever so helpful and have done all the hard work of transferring my subscribers and getting everything set up so that you will continue to know when I have something to share.
Of course, if you are a new reader and would like to follow me, I would love for you to fill in the "Subscribe to my blog" form at the bottom of this page.
Happy stitching!
Val
