Blogging Frustration!

Is it my computer, my internet server or blogger?
It can take what seems like ages to open a post from the blogs I follow and another eternity to try and leave a message.  Since I do not have much patience, I have not kept up with reading and commenting.  I have tried, believe me! So please forgive me for not leaving a comment.  I know their importance and will keep trying. 
In the meantime, I have been busy.
Finished piecing Paris in the Fall by This and That, a BOM available at TOWQS.
A small group of gals all worked together to each make one and we had a little party Thursday to celebrate its completion, but that is a story best kept to myself. LOL! 
Who knew almond flavored champagne was so tasty!
I did manage to complete 1 more CW block, but I am still 2 behind. 

I am anxious to make a red and white quilt!  I have loved seeing all the pictures and reading the articles about the show in NYC.  Wish I could have seen it in person!

  1. Cheryl, your Paris in Fall quilt is very beautiful.
    But also the CW block is nice. I have only made the two first blocks and am not sure, whether I will make more.
    Have a nice week.

  3. I, too, have enjoyed the photos and articles written about the Folk Art Museum's textile exhibition in NYC, I've had the photo of
    A Vortex Quilt on my desk for a week. Just fascinated by it. Sadly, the maker is unidentified.

  5. Beautiful quilt! I am having the same problems with blogger- some new posts seem to appear on Blogger but if I open the blog the post is missing...very frustrating. Many blogs are missing the pictures, too. I am giving up...and may have to resort to doing some house cleaning....Yikes!

  6. Oh-my-gosh- Cheryl, this is a beautiful quilt. Love everthing about it!

    I have a friend who is in NYC this week injoying the exhibit and loving every quilt she sees!

    I haven't experience any problems as you are having with Blogger---hope it improves for you. Do you have a problem with mine? I am not with yours when I visit you.

    Hope you are having a great weekend!

  8. Your quilt is stunning!! I love it! I have trouble with blogger on and off but it doesn't seem to affect all of the blogs I read, just some of them. A lot of times if I just start over again, all seems to be right with cyberworld. Hope your troubles are fixed soon.

  10. It's a beautiful quilt! Yes, sometimes opening and commenting can take forever! Have you seen the online red and white quilt show at Repro Quilt Lover? I plan on posting and entering a quilt later today! It's fun to see them online :-)

  11. your problem I think is actually a blogger problem, sometimes I come on here and it tells me I have no blogs I am following.........hello I am following over 300 blogs........so I have to come back later sometimes the next day. I feel your frustration.

  21. I find blogger quirky sometimes, too. The problem I usually have is it doesn't update the posts in my blog roll. Technology, can't live with it, can't... you know the saying. Keep quilting and posting so we keep enjoying your work!
