Loose Ends

Have you ever commented on a blog or entered a giveaway and wondered why you never received an answer or why you didn't win?

Perhaps it's because you have your Blogger profile set to "no reply", which means that the person on whose blog you commented has no way of contacting you. If you'd like to prevent that from happening, check out the instructions here on how to change your setting so that you can be contacted. It's very easy.

If you prefer not to use your current email account for this, it's easy enough to set up a "play" email account either at Yahoo or Google. You can use that play email account for fun stuff and leave your normal email address private and only for your important messages.

Over the last several months, I have had a number of people comment on my blog posts who are "no-reply bloggers", so I can't contact them to answer their questions or just thank them for commenting. I'll try to answer a few of those questions here...

1) Kutiequilter -- you asked if I enjoyed my visit to Pucky Huddle Delight -- The answer is "YES" and I'll be going back, the next time with a plan.

2) A few "no-reply bloggers" commented on several of my blog posts about the NYC Red and White quilt.exhibit. Thanks for commenting, but I couldn't reply to you directly.

3) Kayleighinstitches -- you've left a few comments, but I can't reach you except by commenting on your blog. I'd much rather send you a private answer to your comments.

4) Laurel -- you asked what "dog ears" are. Look for another post soon explaining these.

And someone else asked about a pattern for this wine quilt -- I'm afraid I don't know anything about it or where it can be purchased. The quilt was just hanging in the winery and I was told that it was made by the owner's mother-in-law.

I hope this clears up a few loose ends and helps some of the no-reply bloggers out there!
