5. You blog enough for me =D

6. Tips would be great on any of your crafting - I'm now interested in knitting because of you! So maybe more on scrapping and knitting tips?

I'm glad I found your blog and basically it's a perk-me-upper whenever it's updated! LOL enjoy reading comments from us Rachel! keep up the good work!

1. How would you classify this blog? If you had to choose one category to fit it into, what would it be?
I think your blog doesnt require any categorising really, it is generally an alround crafty blog with life thrown in for good measure. you have a g8 fun style and tell some wicked stories.

2. Would you like to see more knitting, sewing, scrapping, or general life etc ?
personally i like the mix you already hade
3. Do you have a blog?
yes i do
4. Do you view my blog through google reader only, or do you come and 'visit' each time?
i have you added onto my blogspot reel and check in whenever you post. i also have google reader but honestly only did that when shimelle did the blogging course
5. Do I blog enough? do I blog too much? are the posts long enough/too long? more photos needed, less?
i think you have to be realistic when blogging and not give yourself too many challenges, if you have a busy time then blog less, if you are doing of stuff you want to share blog more.
6. would you like challenges on my blog, sketches, etc
i would love to see some sketches and tutorials as you are such a g8 scrapbooker and work for different companies now. it would be g8 to learn from you.

hope that helps

5. I think its pretty well okay the way it is. Like that you have plenty photos
6. not into challenge blogs but love sketches

Kate said...

Hi Rachel - here's my feedback:

1. Crafty - when I first starting reading your blog it was probably scrapbooking mostly but now you are talking more about knitting and crochet as well so crafty captures all of it.

2. I think you have a good mix of posts on here. I really like seeing the scrapbooking stuff though.

3. I do - it's www.kandgnzadventure.blogspot.com and completely random and I have been shocking at updating it recently.

4. I follow your blog on Google reader and tend to read most posts on Google Reader. If I want to comment I then click through to your actual blog.

5. I like that you blog regularly - that's really good as I know there will be an inspiring post at least every few days.
The post lengths are great as you tend to mix it up a little. I would always say MORE photos but know they can be a pain to upload!

6. Some challenges could be good. I don't tend to do challenges but might be nice to have them every month or so so I have a long time to give them a go.

LOVE your blog. Think I found it via Shimelle's forums originally? Or a link from another scrappy blog. It's always good to see what you are up to and your craft work is very inspiring.

Kate said...

Just checking my feedback came through? If not email me and I'll be happy to do it again. My web page went all funny when I hit publish but it says up the top the comment has been saved so fingers crossed :-)

Claire said...

ok here goes
1) a crafty blog for various crafts with lurvely created items
2)I think you have the balance right of life & craftiness.
3)I too have a little blog
4)I always come & visit you,I don't like google reader
5)I wish I could blog as much as you, which is why I want an Iphone :D
6)bring on the challenges sketches etc, its always fun to try something different & a kick in the mojo is a good thing :D

My not so simple life said...

1.Probably crafty, though its not just one 'type' of crafts.

2. Probably more scrapping, but its quite a good balance as it is. :)

3. Yep.


4. I'm not sure what google reader is, lol. I have it in the side of my blog so when I see theres a new post it takes me to your blog to see.


5. Again I think its a good balance. Particually with photos as your's often tell the story themselves iykwim.

6. ohh challenges are always fun. :)

1. How would you classify this blog? If you had to choose one category to fit it into, what would it be?
I think you blog is a great mixture of crafting and life

2. Would you like to see more knitting, sewing, scrapping, or general life etc ?
I love reading it as it is
3. Do you have a blog?
yes i do
4. Do you view my blog through google reader only, or do you come and 'visit' each time?
I am a secret stalker lol
5. Do I blog enough? do I blog too much? are the posts long enough/too long? more photos needed, less?
blogging is one of those as and when things, i love reading what everyone has been upto when i get the chance for a quiet 10 mins.
6. would you like challenges on my blog, sketches, etc
every now and then maybe.

Katrina said...

Hiya Rachel,

1. I couldn't pick just one category for your blog, it's definitely crafty but it's also about you, your life, your aspirations, dreams & your path.

2. I don't knit or sew but I love to see what you've made. I especially love the scrapping cos I'm a scrapper too.

3. I do have a blog.

4. I visit every time.

5. I think your blogging is perfectly balanced, love lots of photo's and the length of posts are great. My fave was when you did the layout & showed us all the step by step thought process :)

6. I'm not into challenges as such but I do love sketches. I've just used one of your layouts as a kind of sketch, it was a lovely layout of a group of your friends which inspired me to make my first page in a couple of months, so thank you for sharing.

Oh and I first found your blog after following the link on Sarah's Cards, I love reading it so keep doing what you do!

Thank you too for the gorgeous funky beau brooches, they are so so perfect. I bought them as presents and I very very reluctantly gave them away - lol!

Carly said...

Hi Rachel I am a bit behind on the feedback sorry :)

1. I am not a fan of one-size-fits all so I would classify your blog as crafty :)

2. For me I have moved to the knit/crochet side of crafting so I love the blogs that feature this, but I do love to see you participating in such a wide spectrum of crafts - makes me feel bad I don't lol

3. I do have a blog yes :)

4. I have a google read feed so that I can see when the blogs I enjoy have been updated, I also like to click on the post sometimes in the feed to 'visit' your site

5. I am a greedy reader so I love daily updates, I am a poor regular updater so I know that as much as I wish I could blog more regularly it's not possible so I would never judge others timely updates :)

6. I don't really participate in challenges but they are lots of fun so it wouldn't bother me - maybe a knit or crochet along would capture my interest lol

Have a great day x

catesbyK said...

1. I would describe it as a crafty and inspirational blog, I think you have lovely mix of crafty goodness and general life!

2. I really enjoy the mix of stuff you post!

3. Yep, i blog.

4. I mainly view it through google reader and my blog, but do access it directly when I'm on other computers (like now, when I am at work, on lunch obviously...)

5. I envy the amount you blog, I have been neglecting mine a bit of late.

6. Yes, I likes sketches especially, although my end result rarely resembles the starting point!
