my blog – 2011 in review

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

A New York City subway train holds 1,200 people. This blog was viewed about 7,100 times in 2011. If it were a NYC subway train, it would take about 6 trips to carry that many people.

Quilts are like friends -
a great source of comfort.

Now I’m able to stop searching for happiness – the fabric I need is in my sewing room.

Ein “Sorry” an alle Leserinnen und Leser, die Fotos vom Quilt Fest 2011 erwarten. Ich konnte heuer die Veranstaltung leider nicht besuchen, schade.

Einige Bilder gibt es ja inzwischen bei der Patchwork  Gilde Austria zu sehen.
Als Trost, ich habe eine Neue. Kamera.
Muss mich aber erst an die neuen Features gewöhnen.
