I also try to comment on what I read even if only to say pretty stitching but don't always need a response.

If they have backed up too much I might have an amnesty and not reply to any over a week old. If someone just says "nice stitching" I don't usually reply but if they comment on something specific within the post I will include an extra comment, personalising it for regular commenters. I often send links to further designs by the same designer if someone says "I have not seen this before"Jo who can't think of a clever nicknamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02663450738390351663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740614756036914018.post-75790169543894234252014-06-05T03:58:07.649-07:002014-06-05T03:58:07.649-07:00I hope your work situation gets resolved quickly f...I hope your work situation gets resolved quickly for you.<br />A lovely blanket and the mandala is just beautiful.<br /><br />Replying to comments, sometimes I do, sometimes not, depends on what the person has written and what time I have.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13863899802782756191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740614756036914018.post-83998823348174093042014-06-05T00:56:32.839-07:002014-06-05T00:56:32.839-07:00So sorry to hear that the problem hasn't been ...So sorry to hear that the problem hasn't been solved yet. Just try to stay positive and stitch and crochet on your lovely projects.<br /><br />So far I have only answered to comments when there was a question involved. BUt what I always do is go to the commenter's blog and leave a comment there (if I can find it and it's not set on private, that is). When I became retired I once started replying to comments but soon I realized that I spent way too much time on the computer. So now I reply to comments when there is some time left after visiting the blogs in my blog roll and commenting to them.Brigittehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03922122091202289138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740614756036914018.post-326784004240068032014-06-04T21:11:23.246-07:002014-06-04T21:11:23.246-07:00Oh sweetie I hope your work situation will get bet...Oh sweetie I hope your work situation will get better soon!

First I do like to reply to commenters. I think it is nice to comment and lots of time its blog friends that I want to chat more with, at least exchange an email or two. Love your mandala with the DB yarn. I love DB's colors, always have. Maybe I missed but what are you doing with these? I agree totally about life being short and being as positive as possible. LOVE Takara Plum wine and not many people seem to drink it any more but it's a must with Japanese and some other Asian fusion cuisines IMO. Your JCS is looking lovely as is your BBD SAL which I never got off the ground BTW - I started pulling the silks - couldn't find a linen I liked, was either too small a piece or a gigantic piece I didn't want to cut into.

I'm glad you are making the best of it with all your wonderful handwork! <br /><br />As to comments, I always try to reply to people. I do feel disappointed when I leave a comment on blogs and I don't hear anything back. Unless the other blogger visits my blog too and leave a comment, there is no "getting to know" the other person. I find a lot of people don't acknowledge or reply to comments (or at least to mine!).Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17073567534248514127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740614756036914018.post-36746504485354340142014-06-03T05:34:48.257-07:002014-06-03T05:34:48.257-07:00Beautiful stitching and crocheting, Anne! I thi...Beautiful stitching and crocheting, Anne! I think of comments as a way to encourage the person who is blogging, not expecting a reply. Perhaps that is because much of my blogging is done in the Rubber Stamping community where people receive 100's of comments that say... "Nice Card", and replies are not expected. That said, if I ask a question about a pattern or threads on a cross stitch blog - or even a stamping blog - I'm always happy to receive an answer. That's usually my rule of thumb on comments I receive as well. I answer questions and usually reply en masse to other visitors in my blog post itself. I hope I don't seem rude to my commenters, but I'm afraid if I answered everyone individually I wouldn't be able to take the time to blog! :(<br /><br />TriciaTricia Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03234452777402519933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740614756036914018.post-57321510284191354012014-06-03T04:29:12.408-07:002014-06-03T04:29:12.408-07:00What a lovely new post!

I hope your situation gets back to normal soon. <br /><br />I don't expect a reply to my comments, and unless someone asks me a direct question, like "what's the name of that pattern?" I don't reply. Even if they do ask, sometimes my first thought is "if you read my blog you'd know that", lol. I only have so much time, and if I started responding to every comment, I'd never get around to leaving any. I make it a point to visit the blogs of the people who comment and leave comments for them, so I appreciate that it's a reciprocal relationship, but for me it's like you sent me a postcard from Hawaii, so I'll send you one from New York, not I'll call you to tell you that I got the postcard from Hawaii. Especially if didn't put a return address on the postcard, lol. Claudette497https://www.blogger.com/profile/17679481757186222136noreply@blogger.com
