A proper blog

Those of you who have been reading FoF for some time will know that I described it as "not quite a blog". It was just a page on Mabel’s Fancies – you could follow it via RSS, but you couldn’t sign up for email notifications, you couldn’t search the posts and you couldn’t comment!

So why the change to A Proper Blog? Well, I found a way of keeping it on my own site; and I thought it would be nice to hear from people who read it; and it was a nice challenge to my coding skills to try and make the blog look as much like the rest of Mabel’s Fancies as I could. And so here it is *drumroll*: Flights of Fancy, The Blog.

I’ve made sure that everything posted on the old not-quite-a-blog is here as well, just in case you’d like to look up some of the old musings. And of course you can comment on them now! You will have to register in order to comment, and people’s first post will be sent to a moderator before appearing – stitchers are all wonderful people who wouldn’t dream of posting anything rude or unpleasant, but unfortunately there are rude and unpleasant people out there who might sign up even though they aren’t stitchers, and one has to be careful.

if you enjoyed reading the old Flights, I hope you will find the new version equally enjoyable. And if you are new to FoF, I hope it will prove to be entertaining and perhaps even useful every now and again!

  1. Hi Mabel. This is great!!! I’ve wanted to leave comments about how gorgeous your designs are on this website and now I can! It’s so exciting seeing how your ideas evolve and the steps you go through to finish up with your lovely designs. I like the suppliers’ links too. Very handy! I hope they are giving you a discount in return for free advertising!
