Tag: Best Wishes

Today is my 15 year Blogiversary. 15 YEARS!!!I’d love to have a party, but since we are sheltering in place, it will have to be virtual.

5 years ago I wrote my 10 year anniversary post and can’t believe another 5 years have elapsed. I guess I blinked.

Have you been with me the whole time?

I started Artquiltmaker Blog because I had hit a big milestone and I wanted to start something new and send my life in a new direction and practice writing. My first post was not stellar. I remember being distinctly uncomfortable and not knowing what to write. I got better though and even later in May 2005, I was posting real content. Short, not every day, but real content. Now I just blather on at ease and start to get twitchy if I don’t write regularly.

At the end of 2008 I moved the blog over to WordPress.

In 2008 and 2009, I started trying to post every day. It took some time to work up to that schedule. I still try to post every day and mostly succeed, though sometimes I forget, get busy or have nothing to talk about.

This forum has really helped me to move forward in my work. Writing this blog has forced me to make lists of projects and stick to working on those projects. I have enjoyed seeing comments from people, getting to see the work of different quiltmakers via Instagram and Twitter and even meeting a few in person.

I really enjoyed looking through the photos to pick the ones I wanted to add to the gallery when I wrote my 10 year post. I decided to look through the last 5 years worth of photos and pick some of that work for you to review.

To see all of my work, check out the Year in Review tag.

Thanks for reading and commenting for 15 YEARS!!!

In case you were wondering, you really are fabulous!

 

I am taking the day off as it is my birthday! Have a great day and I hope people are enjoying Martin Luther King Day as well. Freedom and equality are always good to celebrate.

I hope you have a great day!

I look forward to a great year of exchanging information about sewing and quilting projects.

Here in the US, we are celebrating Thanksgiving today. My little family is celebrating by having 24 people over for dinner. That means I am busy so you just get this little wish.

Have a great day whether you are celebrating or not.

For those of you who celebrate, Happy Fourth of July! For those of you who do not celebrate, have a great day.

My wish, again, for this 4th (although it is not a gift giving holiday) is that we return to kindness, civility and working together to make a better future for our children.

I hope you have some fun sewing today and that your year is wonderful!

I’ll return tomorrow with some posts about gifts I made. Have a great day.

I am grateful for all of you readers!

Enjoy some spooky sounds for your celebration!

For those of you who celebrate, Happy Fourth of July! For those of you who do not celebrate, have a great day.

For the first time that I can remember it does not feel good to post this sentiment. My wish for this 4th (although it is not a gift giving holiday) is that we return to kindness, civility and working together to make a better future for our children.

Best wishes for a wonderful New Year!

I hope you find everything you are seeking and relish it with gratitude.

 

Thank you for reading!,

Have a wonderful holiday or a great day, if you do not celebrate.

I hope all of you who are celebrating Thanksgiving have a wonderful day and those of you who aren’t have a wonderful day as well! One thing for which I am grateful are you, my dear readers. Thank you!
