Hi everyone,
I was just wondering if I should be thanking everyone who comments on my quilting pictuers, I have done this at times, and then other times I have not. I feel bad if I don't and I don't want to offend anyone. Although I'm wondering if most of you do and I'm just missing it. I would probably be here all day though if I thanked everyone.
I'm just not sure what is the right thing to do., so If I have not thanked you yet Please know that I really appreciate all the wonderful compliments from all of you. I just love this board, It always makes me feel so happy to see quilters like myself really enjoy what they are doing. :) :) :) :) :)

I think if you sent personal thank you's to everyone, you'd never get any quilting done. tee hee I think a general thank you on the post is appropriate...

A thank you, in general is great!! I don't think anyone expects a PM every time they say they like a project. :thumbup:

I agree with Darlene. A general thank you after several comments is sufficient.

If possible, I think it is nice to answer any questions about the project. People often ask about patterns, materials, etc.

I post a thank you every few posts. I think it's only polite.

I for one don't check back to see whether my comments have been acknowledged. If I've asked a question, I'll check back for an answer. So I'm not offended if I'm not thanked.

OTOH, I do thank people who take the time to comment on my pictures and threads. Not always individually, but every so often, I'll at least post a group thank you.
