A Note.....

Hello friends!  Obviously I have not blogged in a very long time.  2016 was a year that was mostly very sad for me and I did not feel the urge to blog.  However, I have really enjoyed taking pictures of stitching and related things to post on Instagram.  So, especially for CAROL and JOY (hello ladies!); I wanted to mention Instagram and and an invitation to follow me over there.  I post under the name Maude and Mozart (but all run together "maudeandmozart"). 


There are so many other stitchers posting lovely projects and ideas on Instagram.  I hope to someday return to the blog form, but at this moment in time Instagram is where I feel very comfortable.  

Hope to see you there!

Well hi Laura. I don't do Instagram, but I was happy to see this brief post by you. I am sorry you did not have the best year last year. I hope the second half of this year is very, very happy for you.

Hi Laura! Good to see your post! I was thinking about you the other day and wondering what you had been up to. I don't do Instagram, but have wandered there a few times at the request of a friend. She wanted me to check out a project and her page isn't private so I popped in.

Enjoy your weekend and your stitching!

I've also missed your blog! I hope that you'll be back to blogging someday. I don't do Instagram (just don't want to start another "thing" to keep up with). Hopefully 2017 is a better year for you.

Great to hear from you Laura...I also haven't blogged in a long time but have recently tried to catch up with other people's blog posts at least. I miss blogging as there were never any "issues" with it and it was a nice little haven of joy. :) I've resisted adding more social media to my life...if it weren't for cross-stitching I would leave Facebook as all the politics etc drive me crazy! So I haven't joined Instagram but will think on it as I know lots of stitchers use it. I've been back in Illinois in my hometown for over a month dealing with some difficult family issues...hope things are improving for you this year. Miss your posts Laura so welcome back!

I miss your blog so much. Don't do Instagram -- my brain can only handle so much social media!

But I think of you with every Tab I taste! Happy Stitching!

Carol said...

I'm so glad I joined IG! It is such a fast way to see everyone's stitching and get inspired :)

Hope 2017 is proving to be a better year for you, Laura. My 2015 was a year NOT to remember, too--thankfully, things have improved!

Thanks for letting us know. I was a loyal follower here, but going to IG now.

Miss your wonderful posts Laura - I hope 2017 is a better year for yo and that you've been able to have some trips and fun with your awesome stitching group. I don't do Instagram - gees with FB eating up hours of my stitching time ( my own fault) I can't add Instagram, tweeting etc. I hope you will consider updating your blog and visiting your friends blogs, many of us are blogging less but still here recording our lives and loves of needlework. Hugs to you - Mel
