Am I doing something wrong?
#74
Sometimes I don't write something becasue there is no way to just make a comment, or leave a compliment, without the follow up responses showing up in the email box. If there were a way to just give a "thumbs up" like on "Stumble", I'd make more 'well done' comments! So, please don't take a lack of responses as a sign that no one likes your work. Just not saying so so we don't get swamped with follow up emails that then have to be opened and then unwatchedand then closed again. All time consuming when we could be admiring more of your quilts!

But when I post a picture of my latest completed project, I have found that I get a very minimal response from the rest of the board. Most pictures get over 100 responses, many get much more than that, while mine have been averaging under 20. This has happened so many times that I am forced to wonder if there is some unwritten rule I am breaking that I don't know about. I wouldn't ask, except that it happens every time. It's starting to bug me a bit, even hurt my feelings a little.
I love this board, but I'm not really feeling the love in return. Please be honest, is it me?

Thank you for posting this. I also feel that way at times, but then I don't comment on every post either, although I certainly look and admire/love everything I see on here. I guess we are all kind of guilty at some point. Keep on Posting.

I know I always look at ALL pictures quoted and ohh and ahh over them but do forget to post about them. It doesn't mean we didn't love your pictures, it may have been a busy day, multiple things going on in our lives, etc. I hope you continue to post your pictures.

Well, this thread is certainly getting lots of posts! :D I just went back and looked, I remember looking at most of your quilts, just didn't comment...sorry. they are all beautiful! You do outstanding work. I think it just has to do with the number of topics on the board now....recent topics changes so quickly that a new thread is only on the 1st page for seconds. It didn't used to be that way.
Keep posting and sharing please... :D

Your work is beautiful. I look at many beautiful posts and do not comment, because I am short on time and I just feel like looking. Please don't judge your work on others responses. Keep posting.
