My quilt board history
What a joy from scrolling through threads I have posted.
I have posted 7 years. My quilts have been preserved by this quilt board. I am fortunate. Not one quilt for me, wonderful to see my loved quilted friends ( my quilts). I call them friends because I have lived/ laughed/cried with them from start to finish.

I agree. There is a history of my quilting on this board. I have now been quilting 6 years, and this board has been with me every step of the way....starting with the first time I changed the blade in my rotary cutter and didn't know if I should wipe the excess oil off of the blade before I put it in the cutter. I asked the question here and got an answer immediately.
I find it handy to go look at threads I started, like when I started my first Bargello and asked for advice. I got so much good information from that thread that I revisit it when I am selecting fabric for a Bargello.
And I am pretty sure I have posted a picture of each quilt as soon as it was finished.
This is a good place to be, and I hadn't thought of it being a history of my quilting, but it certainly is. .

I never thought of it that way but it is true. Just the other day, I was reading an old thread which was about prairie points and surprise, there was a reply from me. I had a picture of a quilt I made with information about the size of the HSTs, which were in the top, and the size of the prairie points. It is a nice history.

When I click onto "The Quilting Board Daily Digest", I find my board name at the top. A click on that takes me to my profile. I go there every day to see who has replied to my posts. I can never remember to which posts I have sent a reply. And I go there to see if anyone else has viewed my threads.

Good thought. Now I wish I had them all posted here. I know someone once said she used the quiltingboard as a log/journal of her quilts...as a blog maybe? I can't remember now but it would be nice to have record of them all in one place. And what better place right?
