Post your pics cause you want to share, & show off, your latest accomplishments. We should all be proud of our work, & it's nice to have a place to share it, isn't it! Don't worry about comments, sometimes we look, but don't have time to comment on every single one we see. And sometimes, I have noticed, an older pic keeps getting comments, later on down the line. So, who knows, but don't take it personal, just enjoy this lovely board & keep on quilting!....

Hi Mary...

I've seen your posts... 'cause I remember your great avatar quilt.

This happens to me to. Sometimes, I'll ask a question that I really need an answer to... and I get one or two responses. (and one of the responses invariably is... 'I don't know, but someone must.." kinda thing). Then I'll post another comment about something off topic.. and get 20 responses in the first 6 hours.

I take it that it just 'is what it is'... lol. Please don't be discouraged or hurt. Like one of the other comments said, sometimes is time of day posted (lots of comments and new topics hitting all at once...).

Other times, I've posted a new topic... and I've NEVER seen it come up on the "Recent Topic" listing. In fact, I can't find it at all, unless I go to the "My Topics" section and find it. Sometimes, that's why others dont' see what I've posted. Again, I think it's the sheer number of posts and new topics being entered simultaniously.

If it happens again, try this.... comment on your OWN topic. That will sometimes bump it up to a 'recent topic' and others will see it when they scan the 'recent topics' section.

This is a great board... but very very large! Easy to get 'lost' in.

Feel better...
hugs, kim

Wow! I must've missed your posts... I just looked at your past photos, you do great work! I love the log cabin pillow & the gift card holders are adorable! Great job.

My latest post also got very minimal responses and I never saw it on the QuiltingBoard Digest. The pic appears under my postings, but I'm not sure how anyone else saw it.

Mary, don't let it get you down. I've viewed and love all of your work but I don't usually post replies. I give everyone the oooos and ahhhhs as I view. If I replied to all of the beautiful work that I've seen, I would be online all day and night. You do beautiful work! No disrespect meant, there is just so much to see and so little time to respond. I'm making time just for you today. Keep up the good work!

Linda

maybe I have the wrong concept of posting . when I post it is to share my quilts, not to look for compliments. I enjoy having others "see" my quilts some of them are by no means deserving of compliments yet I enjoy "showing them off" Don't be upset over the number of remarks you get, just know they are being looked at and some will like them and some won't.
I always look at every post but don't always remark on them,

I know for me, when I see a lot of posts, and they are all saying the same thing I was going to say, I don't post. I never thought that it might hurt the feelings of the poster. I will try to be better in the future.

Everyone needs hugs, and constructive criticism if in order! :XD:

Don't let it bother you. I know that when I look at postings. There are more that I love besides the ones I responded to but I may be in more of a hurry on some days than others. If yours is one of the later ones I read, and I am in a hurry, chances are that it may not get a response from me. Next time.

I sometimes don't post because what I have to say has been said (well said!) several times before! I have yet to put one of my projects out there - I'll see how it goes!

I know what you mean. I haven't started many
topics, or posted pictures, but I have noticed that
when I comment on something, especially if it
is someone asking for advice and I feel I might
could help them, I never get anything back.
I noticed that others reply to different comments
from people, but all of my comments just sit there.

However, I don't think it is because they are
ignoring me - just too many responses to reply to.
I, too, look at some pictures that I think I might like
to see, but rarely do I comment. Like others have
said, there just aren't enough hours in the day to
reply to everything. Hang in there - there are a lot
of people on here that do care. :)
