Learning New Techniques From A Quilting Blog

By Patty Goff


Everyone has a creative side to their personality. Some people enjoy building things that challenge their imaginations. Others enjoy being crafty and selling their goods at the local craft fairs. Following a Quilting Blog in order to learn new techniques and patterns is a great way to expand your knowledge without leaving their homes.

This is a great way to build new relationships and enjoy others who share the same interests. It also provides a great opportunity for everyone to share their experiences so that others can learn from them. The creative juices often flow smoother when engaged with others who share ideas and offer advice on new techniques.

Centuries ago, it was not uncommon to meet in groups to share and discuss a common interest. Women would share a new knitting technique, or a new recipe among her friends. It was a time to enjoy each others company while sharing a common craft. This provided good conversation, laughter and excitement over learning something new, all of which fostered friendships.

These days online communication is abundant. It is somewhat impersonal but is also available to everyone at anytime. Learning skills in a classroom setting was once the way to go. But today with our current technology, one can go online and find a tutorial or training course on just about any subject imaginable. And the greatest thing about it is that it can all be available for review at a later date if a refresher course is needed.

There are obviously pros and cons on this subject. Obviously, the personal connection is lost and relationships are not fostered. But it can also be just what is needed in a world where our time is so limited. Following a blogger who shares a strong interest can provide a connection of sorts as well as new information on the craft you enjoy. It also provides a great way of learning a new skill. If need be, the blog can be reviewed in the future for anyone who feels they need a little reminder on a particular lesson.

Also, following someone who you like and admire allows a level of communication. If you have any comments or questions about the subject at hand, the writers are more than happy to respond to their audience. Bloggers love communicating and discussing their subject with the people they are teaching and welcome the input they receive from those who are following them.

Taking notes and paying close attention to the information provided can increase your skill level as well as your current knowledge on the subject. Just like in a classroom, taking notes and writing down directions can provide a quick reference to a new skill. This also offers the opportunity to discuss what you have learned with family and friends and good notes provides a more accurate account on the subject.

We are living in a time where opportunities to learn and grow is easier than ever. Online classes allow people to get their education without ever leaving home. With all the obligations we have these days, there seems to be very little time for the things we really enjoy doing. Most of us are so busy with our careers, family and home, there just doesn't ever seem to be enough time to do anything else. But finding a good blogger that shares a strong interest can be an easy and convenient way to learn a new skill or enhance one that you already have without having to take time away from home.
