This is a good idea. Thanks! <BR/><BR/>I think many of us decide we're done blogging on a regular basis - it takes up a lot of time, sometimes responses to things we say can be frustrating or hurtful, there's so much more life to live off of the computer ... but, like you, I've found something of myself here, and that's why I keep doing it ;). I love your quilt metaphor, and if I'm the seam-reinforcer, I like that too ;).<BR/><BR/>As for quilt designs, we studied the Underground Railroad recently, and "made" NorthStar quilts out of construction paper. It was very easy, and looked really awesome. I know we're coming out of Black History Month, but it's a great design, very easy, and has a little bit of interesting history behind it :).Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04642417312794814066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8850703275190174771.post-64342490716577971522008-03-03T20:59:00.000-08:002008-03-03T20:59:00.000-08:00great. such a great post.great. such a great post.sarah jean,https://www.blogger.com/profile/07771220925813031964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8850703275190174771.post-7261669330036436012008-03-03T19:14:00.000-08:002008-03-03T19:14:00.000-08:00Oh, that quilt is so lovely!And I'm with you on th...Oh, that quilt is so lovely!<BR/>And I'm with you on the quitting.

So good, and your writing is similar. <BR/><BR/>If you stop blogging then I am afraid that too many of us will have to track you down for our Molly fix, which could be very frightening for you. But breaks from blogging are good.
