But two blogs is double the time and work and we all have hundreds to read as well as work on our own...so we're all in the same boat...err, on the same train. Keep it online, add photos and referencing for updates but don't feel you have to 'blog' on an on-going basis. We ALL visit your main blog and you can let us know when we need to hop the other train for a scenic journey on the side!Michele Bilyeuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15979296861999606692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3682469280580377915.post-17371688917928048422008-06-16T17:56:00.000-05:002008-06-16T17:56:00.000-05:00I agree with the others: at least keep this blog o...I agree with the others: at least keep this blog online if not updated. And if it's not too much trouble for you I'd like to see it continue growing. Hopefully a new batch of "riders" will get on soon!

It would be fun to see more of the orphan quilts. I actually made one a couple of years ago. I thought it was awful, but when I gave it to my son-in-law, he thought it was wonderful! I guess beauty really is in the eye of the beholder. I will get a picture of it and send it to you if you would like. Any hoo, I am off the read more on your other blog. Have a great day and God bless.Lillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11127229509772208186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3682469280580377915.post-50931680308384184232008-06-13T04:05:00.000-05:002008-06-13T04:05:00.000-05:00I've enjoyed reading about and seeing all the quil...I've enjoyed reading about and seeing all the quilts.

I thought I had run out of orphan blocks, but they keep appearing out of the woodwork. Are you not getting pictures of peoples' projects, or are you tired of doing the blog? My vote is KEEP this wonderful blog that inspires people.Carol E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02741550863747328734noreply@blogger.com
