But I have managed to make 2 3/4 Calixa snowflakes which are Frivole's 2019 snowflake.
One!
3/4 or 5/6 I suppose. So close but a total screw up in round one. Grr.
Number #2
I'm wondering about blogging anymore. Do people read blogs? I do -but I wonder. I have started instagram (for tatting and rarely a few other things). If you'd like to follow me, here's my thing @mamagistra It's a private account but if you're a tatter, I'll "approve" you.
I read tatting blogs daily, though I rarely leave comments. It’s so quick and easy to post on Instagram and to leave a like on other people’s photos. I think blogger still has its place for sharing links, tutorials, and patterns so I will be keeping active on both Instagram and blogger.
ReplyDeleteI do! I hope you’ll keep blogging, I think it’s a shame that so many tatting blogs have disappeared. Facebook is much more difficult to follow, comments and posts disappear. I’m not on instagram. Beautiful snowflake, second time round!
ReplyDeleteI do, too! And always will 😄 I prefer blogging because blog is the most Open forum and easy to search through. I like Facebook for quick scrolls and reaction buttons, and inspiration. But questions/answers are repeated as nauseum, and stuff gets 'lost'.
ReplyDeleteBut it is 'alive', more than blogs, since we don't stop to comment in the latter.
I share my entire learning experience, which is another reason blogging is the best format for me.
I feel Instagram is essentially similar to Pinterest.
Each platform has it's merits if it is in sync with one's objectives.
I love this snowflake, and your blog I do have an Instagram account and love it to I will check to see if you are on mine already😁 later on today I am out of town, hope the tatting sections will grow for you💐😀💐
ReplyDeleteYour snowflake is beautiful! I have the pattern, but I've been caught up in other projects, so it may take a while for me to get to it.
ReplyDeleteI have an Instagram account, as you know, but I seldom think to use it. I use Facebook regularly, because my relatives can find me easily on Facebook. Also, I keep in touch with Ice Drop Addicts and Tollway Tatters through Facebook. However, blogging is my favorite format. I can post short or long entries, add as many photos as I like, and comments are easy to access.
There are times when I feel like just closing my computer and walking away from technology, but blogging is what has helped me keep my focus and complete projects. I hope Blogger never goes away!
I read blogs on a daily basis and am disappointed that so many seem to have abandoned them in favor of Facebook. I detest FB for all the adds and inability to find things I just saw because the page refreshes. I'm not on Instagram or any of the other popular social media sites.
ReplyDeleteThere are many blogs that I follow. I just opened a Facebook page to be part of a quilting group but I find it more enjoyable to read a blog. Not on Instagram.
ReplyDeleteI read blogs everyday. I especially love blogs concerning my favorite pastime, tatting. Please don't stop.
ReplyDeleteI only use blogger. I don't really want to have tons of accounts all over the internet(it already knows wayyyy too much about everyone)! ;)
ReplyDeleteI love seeing your tatting on the blog and miss when you haven't been on for awhile. I have noticed a major drop in how many people seem to be on the blogs anymore, but you have a really good amount of people who have responded here!!
Great snowflakes!!! :)
Sajnos sok magyar blogot benyelt már a face...A blogok itt személyesebbek, sokkal kedvesebbek...
ReplyDeleteI do not blog as much as I used too, partly because of time and also not really having enough tatting to show. What I like the most about blogging is having a good record of what I have been doing throughout the years. Have little time to read blog posts but when I do it is very enjoyable and not so cluttered and fast moving as Instagram and facebook, although I have accounts with them too!
