The loving kindness and encouragement is what I love most about this board. I know that there have been times when I have seen quilts or whatever posted here that were not great, but you were all so nice to the person anyway. I think we can all tell when it is false praise though. I follow the same rule as most everyone here about saying something nice or nothing at all. But that is not to say I only post if I love the creation. I simply do not have time to post on every single thread.
I am amazed and sometimes overwhelmed by the talent and creativity on this board. Who knew that there was such a great bunch of fantastic quilters that were also the kindest and most helpful people as well? I find it so refreshing. There is so much negativity on the internet, as well as an awful lot of bullying so it is nice to have a safe place to come and see that not everyone is like that.
