I've been mainly focused on stitching blogs up until now but have branched out. I think blogging is a great way to journal your thoughts, projects and goings on since it's nice to look back and remember...oh right! I did this!! I think your colourful photos are wonderful, and what you and your family does is so inspiring to me, although I don't live on a farm (unfortunately), I live in an apartment, I find your blog is a great escape for me to day dream that one day, I may have a place I can grow things and do crafts!!Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15102636394805433263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-81394242315548027552014-01-17T16:39:46.284+11:002014-01-17T16:39:46.284+11:00I like that it's kept simple here.

I'm in a blogging lull, but I'm not forcing it. With nothing to sell, there is the freedom of coming and going as you like. I haven't been reading many blogs lately at all. They somehow leave me feeling a little inadequate and left behind. But yours is one of the few I do read. Read your Country Style story Kate and loved it. Enjoy your weekend and hope you can stay cool through the heat that we're having right now.

This blogger blog is you. ...Simplicity is the word. This blogger blog is you. If you turned it in to something different you would loose your ground. Keep doing what you do. When you want to do it. I have written about 5 blog posts in 2 months... I am stuck like you say... I'm not sure how to get back into it. I should have done it last weekend but got distracted. I should have done it yesterday, tat was the plan, but a coffee invitation to some good girl friends was more interesting. I thought I would do it today but I doubt it will happen. Eventually it will come back to me. I just got to give it time. Good blogs can't be forced. Good blogs are natural. At least I think so and at least that is what I find makes me come back over and over again. So I am with you. And I am so pleased to hear you will continue. <br /><br />Constructive feed back: I love the way you document and tell a story with your pictures. It is you and Alicia at Posie gets cozy that does this best. Just to pop in and browse your picture story makes me feel like a good friend just told me about her day. Your photography is stunning. You really know how to display a picture, a detail and the pics are always sharp, clear and interesting. Never to much. Never to little. And you're writing is the cream on top. Many blogs might have either the photos or the contents or the writing. You have it all in a package. I'm not sure how you do it or what it is that makes it but you just have that way of talking through words which makes me listen an d read every word. Feel and understand. Come one phrase or a long novel story. And layout... Perfect. I wouldn't have it any other way with flash and cool fonts or accessories... No simple and plain, like real life. Your blog posts do the work on your blog. They are in focus, not some bloppy advert in the side bar... Just to let you know. This is how I feel. And I'll keep coming back to hear your stories, watch your children and farm grow and to get inspired. <br />Happy New Year Kate<br />xxx<br />AnnetteAnnette - MyRoseValleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09778246579909568662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-8794155056992524002014-01-15T21:30:05.960+11:002014-01-15T21:30:05.960+11:00Please don't change Kate.. you and your blog a...Please don't change Kate.. you and your blog are perfect just the way you are!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-83406092468504294502014-01-15T11:19:33.912+11:002014-01-15T11:19:33.912+11:00Yay!
