Pingback: *100 Blocks Blog Tour Day 5 | Quilty Pleasures Blog
It’s been at least two or three hours. Maybe not a LOT of time, but all quality!
Some blogs just got a quick peek, a few I got lost in for at least 30 min, but most got 10-15 min. So I’d guess about 2o hrs. Yikes, was I having fun or what
egads….do I have to admit that it is probably 10 hours….I think I am going to sew, but then there is so much to read in quilted blogland….
Oh dear, do I have to tell? lol! 6 hours? 8 hours? reading about designer’s blocks and their inspirations. Love knowing the story behind the blocks and a getting a peek at the process. Going to the bookstore and the quilt shops after work today looking for the magazine. Some quilty friends online have gotten their copies already, those lucky duckies.
I spent probably a total of 9 hours, three hours a day almost, I loved looking at all the different blogs, and Ideas from the book gonna be very good book, I sure hope I win. That was all some beautiful fabric.Thanks to everyone, good luck everyone,
I am with Mary Valaika -Oh dear yes 6-8 hours and loving every minute of it. Wednesday was a rough day at work with only 3 hours sleep:-)
I am so afraid it is at least 10 hours in the past five days! What if it is more?!
I spent way more time than I will admit to. It was great fun to learn what is going on out there for quilters. I enjoyed every minute of it.
I’d guess at least 8 or 10 hours over the course of the week. Cut into my sewing time, but I’ve gotten so much inspiration! Thanks for this tour and thanks for the chance to win. Love it.
My kids would say too much time! I think maybe 8 or 9 hours–I tried to sneak it in before they woke up in the mornings. Looking forward to seeing the issue in person! Thanks for the chance to win!
Honestly, this is my first time here. I saw a post on Facebook from Quiltmaker Mag. and thought I would come check it out. I have already bookmarked this page though so Sunday, when I have chance, I’ll be back.
I’d say 18-20 hours easily. ..and several sites are bookmarked to go back to!!
10-15 hrs – which was very easy to do! So much inspiraton out there! thank you!
3 hrs was all I could spare as I is finals week (college student!) but it was fun!
I spent about an hour and 10 minuties looking at the block. Some really look fun to make. I often only make a single block and put it in my “orphan” box and plan to someday make these into a quilt.
Oh my! Another confession! At least 15 hours! Maybe more. I honestly only intend to look for a half of an hour or so, and then I get immersed in a blog, go back to see what else she’s done, click on a new blog on the side bar, and when I look up, it’s been 3 hours. No wonder I don’t get as much sewing done as I used to before I discovered the internet. But, the eye candy is so beautiful!
I have just arrived! Have spent about an hour here this morning and enjoyed it immensely. Sorry I missed the other days, but will be checking out this site regularly now.
Goodness….have just learned about blogs so I am borderline obsessed with all of the information being given. I am learning so much…2 hours in the morning before the babies are up…and a good 2 hours while they nap daily and then after they are asleep at night….my husband said he misses me! So cute! Guess I better cut back at night when he gets home! Thank you for this opportunity.
Oh how do I count the time, well enough to be late for work every day this week, then lost track of time making dinner, burned that hello pizza, – and then I am suppose to be making two quilts that I have a May 20th deadline on-oops not worked on and I will be late again this morning. I guess too much time.
I am guessing maybe 3 to 4 hours. And I enjoyed every minute of this 100 blocks blog tour! Thank you!
I would say that I’ve spent at least 15 hours doing the blog hop hop;)! It’s been great fun especially seeing new designers and looking at all the beautiful and unique blocks. Can’t wait until the magazine comes out!
I probabaly spend about an hour a day surfing quilting blogs, 5 hours a week at least. I LOVE google reader. I have quite a long list of blogs that I check out from my list (yours included).
Your blog is so interesting. It will be a pleasure looking around.
I probably spend 5 to 6 hours a week reading quilt blogs. Love my blog reader! Would love to win the big prize.
At least 10 hours, and that’s why my scrap squad quilt isn’t done yet!
its 4am and i’ve just stumbled on this site and can’t wait to spend hours browsing around … its been bookmarked already! Can’t wait to spend more time here but for now i’d have to say i’ve only spent about an hour.
I have spent nearly 8 hours blog to blog to blog – most of which I had never seen and I stayed for a visit when I got there.
Probably spent at least an hour a day during this blog hop.
Just started looking yesterday, but proably spent a hour or so then. Nice to know there are lots of other quilters out there in cyber world.
I wish it was hours. I get a few minutes regularly to check in and bookmark for later. This has been so much fun! Thanks for sharing with all of us! Belinda
There are so many things to learn from reading blogs. I probably spend a minimum of an hour a day online, 10 or more hours a week.
I’ve probably spent about 2 hours per day…and that’s probably on the low end.
There’s always lots of inspiration on the various blogs I read.
I’ve probably spent 5 hours reading blogs this week and plan to do a lot more this weekend to catch up! Can’t wait to see Vol 3!
I would say close to 8 hours total. There is so much to see and read. I enjoyed getting to know some quilters that I had not visited before and seeing their work. Such creativity!
Well, I just came upon this today and I have been on this since 3am and it is know 7am, and I will be continue to be on it some more, I am a web aholic and I love my crafts, and I think that there has been some excellent information material /patterns/complete projects/etc all shared here among famous homaker crafters
I have probably spent about 6 to 8 hours looking at all the websites. This was a really fun idea. Thanks to all the quilters who participated and designed a block. Thanks to all the sponsors who donated prizes.
I spent less time than I would have liked to, but life is having its way with me and there are so many other things needing done, I just peeked at most blogs. But I know they’re there and when time permits, there are quite a few I’ll be going back to. So timewise…maybe 4-5 hours total. But even with that little peek, I gained inspiration for years to come! Thanks so much for all of this – the patterns, the blog tour, the goodies to win…it’s been loads of fun.
Oh I have to say 3-4 hrs a day, so maybe 20 hours. Before work and then at night. Bookmarked the ones I want to read again and again. This has been a fun tour. Thanks for a chance to win.
Cindy W.
About 20 hrs…ekkk! A few hours here and there with a quick look but several evenings 4 hrs of sewing time. But inspiration sure counts in sewing time too! Thanks for all the fun and eye candy.
I am guessing I have spent about three hours a day (usually in the morning) — and, now I have more in my “favorites” list — that probably means more time, even after this week. I’ve really enjoyed “meeting” some new designers and revisiting my favorites. 15 hours! That’s a fair piece of quilting time!
Somewhere around 15 hours. Like someone said above, some sites a peek and others much more time. This has been a fun week. Hope I win something, but I’ve gotten a lot of inspiration even if I don’t.
I don’t even want to think about how much time I’ve spent browsing other sites. It’s definitely been a lot of hours!
I’ve totally loved finding new inspiration and drooling over some gorgeous projects.
I’m only writing this because I know my husband won’t see it, I’m always so, so busy when he gets home! Sure because this week since Monday I’ve probably spent close to 18 hours on here, and then there’s today…..I’ll miss this, but my laundry will finally get caught up!
It’s a good thing my wife, nor my boss will read this post! I would estimate that I have spent 3-4 hours per day, so at least 15, probably closer to 20.
This is one incredible prize package!!
Paul
Wow – how much time? I got lost in the fun…. I usually spend an hour or so every morning reading some of my favorite blogs, but this week has been like a FEAST!!! I’ve spent up to 3 hours a day having fun visiting the different blogs and I’m delighted to say I’ve found quite a few new favorite blogs to follow! Thanks so much Quiltmaker for a wonderfully fun-filled week!!!!
I have probably spent about an hour a day looking through these sites. Could have spent more time, but had to get to work!
I love the computer and quilting it wasn’t hard for me to spend 2 or 3 hours a day looking and checking back to the blog and facebook page so a total of about 10 hours or more the day has just started.
Wow – so much stuff, I’m drooling! I’ve had a really busy work week but whenever my computer is consumed with some big calculation I’ve come over here to read and comment on posts. I’ve subscribed to the blogs of about a dozen quilters who had blocks featured, and will probably catch up with them later – the hour or two I’ve spent in total is not enough!
I haven’t been keeping track! It has been a few hours, though. There has been so much to look at and the time just flies by.
I’d say I’ve spent “too much” time – and a whole weekend yet to go! Lots of great info & inspiration. Thank you for everything!
ha ha, it’s been a few hours
I haven’t kept track, but I’m guessing maybe 3 or 4… there are so many posts per day, and I check in on each of them!
I didn’t get a chance to look yesterday, so will spend a good bit of time today getting caught up. But in the first three days, I would say I spent at least 5 hours. Lots of fun and inspiration!
I’m hopelessly addicted! I’d have to give an estimate of 1.5 hours day….
I am amazed at the generosity of everyone who has donated items for the giveaway. A big THANK YOU to everyone who donated!!!
I think that I have spent at least an hour a night on the blogs. And I will probably spend more time this weekend so it could be 6 hours total. WOW!
I roamed the blog for 15-20 minutes early each morning. Well, some mornings were a lot more. Great stuff to look at each day. Thanks for the fun things this week.
Honestly – its been several hours each day- that’s because of two things. I only have dial up connection and I do like to see the blogs of the different designers. But – not to worry I still am accomplishing something as I am also working in my sewing room and actually doing a make over of rooms to allow for more space to put all my sewing gear in. That is making room for all the loot if I should win your great giveaway!!! Thanks- its been fun.
I have been SO busy lately… and kind of sick. I think it has only been an hour. Hopefully I can catch up this weekend!
I have spent at least two hours every morning for five days because I also love to read what else the blog offers. Awesome giveaways and I am a devoted subscriber, follower and participant. What a wonderful opportunity having my morning coffee with you every day. Judy C
I haven’t been keeping track but probably way too much time, although I have enjoyed every minute of it. I can’t get over the creativity of the designers.
let’s see, I have spent about 15 hours here, having a great time. It’s my first time blogging, and first tour. I have found so many new ideas and places to get more. dont feel all alone out here in the boonies anymore!! Sure would be nice to win some of those goodies, since there arent any quilt shops within 90 minutes of me!
I think about 3 hours. What a fun week!!! Definitely has got me in the mode to sew this weekend. Thanks for such a great time this week!!!!
I am thinking about 2 hours a day but it was time well spent! I got lost on blogs and found some more favorites because of their blocks. There is so much talent out there…I appreciate that you are bringing these wonderful designers to our attention. Love the 100 Blocks Blog tour!
Oh wow, way more time than I should have. I loved looking at the blocks, and thinking about how I could adapt them, but almost as important to me, it got me back into blogging. Even if I’m not blogging about quilting, at least I am writing, and when I start sewing again, the quilt posts will probably come.
I love the 100 Blocks issues! I first found out about them in a class at Hen Feather’s Quilt Shop in Wichita, KS. No local sources here in my new, rural Colorado location
I’m thinking around 5 hours for the total. It has been a lot of fun seeing the blocks and looking at a lot of new blogs as well. thank you for the opportunity to win these fabulous prizes.
Mary
I spent some time at various sites
each day for the 100 Blocks Blog Tour.
At least a couple hours daily was spent this way,
I wish (kinda!) that there was more.
Alas, all good things must come to an end,
it was a lot of fun!
My keyboard got drooled on, my imagination was fueled on,
and some new projects to be begun!
I have spent 5-8 hours checking out all the sites (I found work got into the way many times). This was really a lot of fun.
I’ve been out of town so missed a lot of fun! I’ll be in our local bookstore on the 10th to get my copy if I don’t win one! I have really enjoyed the first two issues so know this one will be spectacular.
Some quilting blogs I read daily, so not sure how to add them up for the week. However, I’d guess I’ve spent 3 hours this week reading some. Just found yours, thanks to Judy Laquirada! Would love to win a prize, too!
I would estimate that I’ve spent 5 hours of good quality time visiting the blogs and gazing fondly at my favorite blocks and fabrics. It’s been great fun!
I haven’t had as much time as I usually do to check out blogs this week. I have only spent about 3 hours. Typically that number is at least 10 hours. Thanks for the opportunity to win!=)
I think I have spent 4 hours at least!
I have spent at least five hours this week looking at quilts and quilt patterns. They are all so delightful and provide much inspiration in creating my quilts.
I probably spent an hour each day, way too many lovely things to look at and you can definitely get sidetracked at each and every blog. Now I am drooling over all of the prizes, just one little scrap of the fabric, please?????
as usual, i have spent at least five hours looking at all the blogs. i can’t resist clicking on every link i see; i’m constantly inspired by all the creativity i find.
My mug will hold green tea on my first morning. It’s a great mug that I’d love to have. I’ve spent almost an hour reading the blogs. What fun!
Oh my, many hours(5) and hours to be in the future also.
I have spent 15-20 hours. Probably too much time but I enjoyed it.
I love all the blogs, but REALLY loved Karen Neary’s block and blog. Thanks for all the inspiration!
Just came upon this this morning via e-mail. Already been looking around at all kinds of block patterns, voting, writing comments…sadly it’s only been an hour but I have a 10 month old son. But more moments I can get to sit and peak around will come. I’ve been so inspired by this site, my grandmother, close friend, and son, that i recently started an Etsy shop! http://www.etsy.com/shop/thickscnhp! Come check it out and let me know what you think.
I’m almost ashamed to admit to the approximately 10+ hours (weekly) I spend reading the gazillions of wonderful quilting-blogs on the internet. I spend more time reading & perusing the fabulous quilt photos, on numerous blogs, than quilting. I’ve just added another hour (lol) commenting here for a chance to win some fabulous prizes. Blogs are addictive–good one’s that is!!!!
I’ve gone one at least once a day. I’m a fairly new quilter so these prizes would be a wonderful start to my new passion. Have a great weekend.
i read blogs every morning as I browse the different sites, they are just wonderful and so full of ideas.
I spent about 12 hours so far, and it would have been more. I missed Monday, and when I went back yesterday afternoon to see if the giveaways were still open on those pages they had closed. I still read what the designers posted, but didn’t use the extra time to comment on most of the posts. My followers list has grown greatly due to wanting to go back and check out what several designers have done in the past. Way to much fun here this week!
Sorry I orginally posted this to the int’l one by mistake:
I generally spend at least an hour or two normally to read through my blog reader but with the added “100 blocks tour” this week that time was definitely doubled!
The upside was I got a great peek at the issue, can’t wait to get a copy, already know few blocks I want to work with and found some great new designers, patterns and blogs. A great week was had by all I’d say!
Oh my, how horrifying to think of the actual amount of time… ack! It has been at least an hour every day of the tour, peeking at new blogs, leaving comments, marking new bookmarks on my computer, dreaming of all sorts of new projects! I have also been inspired to sew a lot and even organize and clean up in the sewing room some so I can be more productive! So I have spent LOTS of quilt time this week, both on and off the computer! (and have completely enjoyed it! I good mother’s day gift to myself!). I would be GIDDY to actually win something… like the cherry on top of a great quilty week.
at least 10 hours……………but FUN
About 8 hours. So much to look at!
I think I have spent about an hour or so each day looking at blogs and quilt websites during this “tour”. It has been great fun!
Wow, how much time have a spent on quilt blogs this week? It’s easily more than 7 hours. I love all the eye candy and great ideas.
My “I Wanna Make” list has doubled since spending 9-10 hours here!
It’s a regular ritual with me every morning; I sit at the computer, with my cup of coffee and visit all sorts of inspirational blogs. Some days it’s only for a few minutes -just to get my ‘quilting fix’. Other days the time just seems to fly by -oh! my!
Probably 4-5 hours (but please don’t tell my husband!) He thinks I have been doing some admin work in my role as treasurer of my quilt guild!
quilty blog reading? Well I guess I have to confess. 2hrs. a day! Akk! I know. Now I need to sew all the ideas I see & love!
At least 8-10 hours, but in glancing at the comments, I have not been alone! Just love all those blogs and the ideas they have. So inspirational.
Who knows how long it’s taken me to look at all the blogs! Time moves quickly when you are engrossed in something. Have really enjoyed all the blogs.
I know I spent at least 2 to 3 hours per day and I have bookmarked lots of blogs to return to. everyone who followed this blog tour will surely have to buy the book. It is so full of great ideas and it is great to have a chance to win so many wonderful prizes.
Wow, and all these folks think they spend too much time reading blogs. Ha! I get off work at 2:30 every day, so I’m generally home by 3:00. I immediately get on the internet and start surfing for blogs. I generally don’t sign off until around 9:00, but have gotten up and down, and moved around during that time, so I’d say I spend approximately 4 hours a day reading blogs and looking at their blog roll, clicking on blogs that look interesting in their blog roll, then doing the same thing when I get to the newest blog. So if we consider the week starting on Monday, that would be Monday-Thursday 4 days X 4 hours each day = 16 hours. Don’t even think about the weekends! No wonder I never seem to do any sewing!
i was a little late to follow the blog so im still not finish,but what i seen i loved each and every one of them. i was at leased about 8 hours on there.thanks so very much to put that all together and for the great giveaway. it would be wunderful if i would be the winner.so now back to the blocks to have some more fun.thanks again.
Most mornings this week I have enjoyed viewing the featured blocks of the day and reading some of the blogs. So, so many are giving me, relatively newby at quilting, quite a few ideas. How does one fine the time to tackle their lists of quilting “to dos” with all the inspiration?!
I have had great fun looking at all the sites this week, probably spent over 6 hrs total so far. Have several I have saved to go back to again and again.
I find that I forget about time when I start looking at all these lovely blocks and the creative people that make them. One thing leads to another and another and before I know it my dog is pleading to go out and the cat is begging for food and the husband will be home from work. Oh my but what fun.
Our internet service providers records might give a more accurate account but I guess its been just about every opportunity I could find (or make)to grab another bite of this most delicious and enriching feast of quilting. This is the first time for me and through it I’ve learned how talented and varied and beautiful the makers of the 100 blocks are and I’m grateful to them and the organisers of the tour for all the opportunities to learn and grow they’ve given us. Thank-you from my heart! I’m looking forward to doing it all again, God willing. (P.S. My Favourites bar is full to overflowing now! )
Oh, the wealth of information and inspiration! How do you answer how many hours when there aren’t enough hours! I’m estimating a good 20 hours, with many of them bookmarked so I could go back and look in depth. So much fun!
I probably only spent a couple hours looking at blogs this week. Doing a shop hop and getting ready for a quilt show so I’ve been pretty busy this week. I’m looking forward to the new issue of 100 blocks. It’s amazing how the designers can come up with new ideas each year. Love the book!
I’d say easily 6 or 7 hours– which might explain why my quilt is not bound yet!
I probably spend about 6 hours a week visiting quilty blogs. This week has been closer to 10. Thank you for this fun week. Take care and God bless, Cory
i read about 9 to 10 hours a week…couple hours a day. hey- i like seeing what going on in studios around the world
I have spent at least 2 hours each day on the tour alone. As soon as I got up each day, I went to your blog and started visiting the sites. I have enjoyed all the blogs, and even “followed” a few new ones. I spend at least another two hours in the evening check out blogs. There is so much great information out there.
I’ve probably spent an hour to 1 1/2 hrs a day easy visiting all the blogs, and dreaming about the delightful quilts I want to make!! Thanks for all the great inspiration this week! Can’t wait to get the magazine!
Oh goodness, my husband isn’t going to read this is he??? I probably spend about 3 or 4 hours, it is like eating candy… I can’t stop..
I’d have to say 10 hours – 2 each day. So much fun – thanks for the great week!
Not nearly enough time – had a quilt project that I had to get done and it’s finished so now I can enjoy more time.
I say never enough time…my hubs would probably say too much time
so I’ll leave the actual hours unsaid, but I love it. Always so much great inspiration and fun to see what others are creating! Thanks for the chance to win!
I am so naughty this way–I love to surf for ideas and inspiration. This week has been especially wonderful with all the block designers’ blogs. It’s easily 2 hours per day. Every time I walk by the computer I check Google reader to see if anyone’s posted. I’m following 169 blogs and loving every word!!
p.s. Is that rally Marcia Derse fabric I spy? Swoon!
probably at least an hour a day – 7 hours
This has been a great blog tour this week — I’ve probably spent 4-5 hours visiting everybody’s site.
thanks to you and to your generous sponsors!!
I’m guessing I’ve spent an additional 90 minutes each day…on some of the blogs I just took a quick peek, but others inspired me to go poking around through old posts and completed projects. What a great introduction to so many talented designers. Thanks so much to everyone!
Ohh, this is TOO exciting! I have spent at least 5 hours this week on the blog tour. I couldn’t help it — I found some NEW blogs to explore!
Ouch!! I am not sure I want to type it out. Well maybe about 25 hours or more. I spend a good 3 1/2 hours in the morning then it is a hit and miss for the rest of the day. I love all the items in the give away!!
I must have spent at least 20 hours this week visiting the blogs from your magazine, but in addition I visit other blogs so I need to up that number to about 30 hours. Wow.
I’m afraid to say that I’ve probably spent between 10-15 hours on this blog journey. It is a good thing my husband was at work all this week, so that my not going to bed until very late mattered. lol Thanks for such a great tour. I’ve really enjoyed it.
I’ve spent about 2 hours so far looking at all the wonderful designs. I’m hoping to spend alot more time catching up this weekend! This is a great way to virtually-meet new people.
I have spent longer this week due to the blog hop for the new Quiltmaker’s 100 bkocks. I have spent at least 10 hours this week and can not wait to get the book so I can drool over it and decide which ones I will make.
I spend at LEAST 1-2 hours a day searching all my blogs. I just love looking at everyones projects. And when I am bored I try to find more blogs to read.
I’ve had great fun for about 3-4 hours exploring all the blocks and their designers. Sooo inspiring. I’ve already picked out quite a few I want to incorporate into quilts and have only just started on today’s blocks.
Correction. That should be 3-4 hours a day.
Probably about an hour a day. Would have been longer but I had to take care of my family. This week combined with a guild meeting this morning makes we want to get right on the sewing machine and make something. Just have to decide what!!
Oh, my goodness! I can’t believe how much time I’ve just spent looking at all these blogs. What fun!
I have spent way way way too much time visiting blogs, but I find something new at each and every one.
I’ll be playing catchup on the blogs today, for the better part of the day…I’m behind as I’ve been ignoring my emails to work on wedding sewing, not so much quilt sewing for me lately! I am in awe, once again, of the many talented designers out there. And all the generous giveaways! I can’t wait for the magazine to arrive at the stores.
I’ve had a busy week and have maybe spent 1 hr so far, but I’m off today and plan to do some catch up…probably will end up spending 3 – 4 hours at least. Nice day to stay home in jammies and do what I want!
Oh my. It’s been between 2 and 3 hours each day, for a total of about 12 or 13 hours. Is my face red! But I sure had a great time! (I’ll need to get back in a big hurry to finishing my niece’s graduation quilt!)
I have been home from work following hand surgery and I must say it has been the perfect week to have time to visit so many blogs and designers pages. I’m afraid I have spent more than 20 hours drooling!
Even if I don’t win anything, it has been worth the time to see such beautiful designs and get somany new ideas.
Honestly, time I’ve been trying to ignore lately. I’m working late afternoons & am always in a rush to feed the family & run off to work :} So, my answer must be far more than I should, huge gulp. But, totally engulfing my brain in this fun endeavor!
Time? Do I have to admit it? I spent sooooooo much time visiting blogs instead of sewing this week that my face is red! It was at least 10 hours, but seriously, it was sooo worth it! Thanks for the fun!
Okay … you are asking … I’m only going to admit to a range of 12 hours to 24 hours …. and this is only this week. I also stalked your site before the tour constantly to ensure that I did not miss the start of the Blog Hop. I adore your magazine and your staff is so friendly and fun, I enjoy visiting as often as possible. Thank you so very much!!
What a great magazine this must be. You selected many terrific designers and designs. It’s been fun looking at all the different sites. Thanks again.
Goodness, that’s a tough question! I’m usually blog hopping at least 2 hours a day, sometimes a lot more. All the designs are beautiful and the blogs give me so much inspiration! Now if I can just figure out why I haven’t had much sewing time lately……….
I’ve been having a ball on this blog tour. It is by far the best one I’ve attended on all the internet. I love all the blocks and hope to win one of the many prizes. thanks so much
I bet I have spent at least 1-2 hours a day, maybe more. 10 to 12 hours? yikes. thanks so much!!!
~a
i have only been a quilter for about a year and blogs gives me inspiration and lots of advice that i use . I visit blogs about 8 hrs a week
I love the blog tour and any of the items that you would win would be great…thanks for all you work and time spent.
Yes, please enter me for the giveaways! Hate to see the blog hop end, but seriously have to get back to doing some housework. Company coming tomorrow. Eeek.
I’d say 3-4 hours. I just love reading what everybody is up to and I get so much inspiration from reading what everybody is doing!
I’ve probably spent about 1-2 hrs per day looking at all the quilty goodness during the blog tour. Thanks so much for all the fun links and great opportunities to win such fabulous prizes.
jennhgray at gmail.com
Just started looking and have been here about an hour so far. Planning to spend a few hrs tonight after work
I’d love a chance to enter and I have spent so much time looking at all the blogs!!
Thanks
I just discovered this thing called Blog Hopping! Who knew. So between now & Monday I estimate I will have spent more than 8 hours visiting the different blogs.
Id say at least 12 hours and I still have todays. Once I get on each blog I start reading and then involved. A great way to learn about new quilt designers and teachers, Ive found tons I want to make and buy. Ive long ago passed the line of having more to do than I can in this lifetime, but hey maybe Ill live to 110! Great job as usual QM Staff!
Not as much time as I would have liked to have spent, judt a few hours. Great blocks and great blogs!
I spent several hours a day looking at all the blogs and even putting a few in my favorite places. I thoroughly enjoyed all the visits. Now I will get back to sewing.
I love Quilty Pleasures and have loves the 100 Blocks week!
I would guess about 15 hours so far (not done yet!) and now I’m hooked on more blogs!
I’d have to say that an 1 1/2 hours each day checking the blogs and having fun commenting. So that totals 7 1/2 hours. But then add in the additional clicking of any other hyperlink at each blog, so the total may be twice that. So much fun. Thanks to everyone that pulled this together. There’s a lot of work “behind the scenes” and they deserve kudos. Now I HAVE to get back to work.
I have probably spent at least 8 hours this week checking the different blogs. I have added a few to my list as well. What a great way you have given us to see other blog sites. Thanks
With as many quilting newsletters that I have received, this is the first time, I think, that I have visited this site. I have bookmarked it so I can come back, but right now I have to get to work. Please enter me in the contest. Hope that I am a winner. Thanks.
Talk about a “guilty pleasure”–I love the blog, the ideas,patterns,blocks-OMG. I am hooked and am loving every minute of it!!! Thank you for the chance to learn and explore all the limitless possibilities to work and play with fabric.
I’d guess 7 – 8 hours. Thanks for the show and for the chance at the wonderful giveaway!
I’ve probably spent at least an hour a day on the blog tour, mostly because I get sidetracked with the links and find myself reading new blogs. I’ve loved every minute of it, too!
It’s been days, not hours!! Every day I’m looking at someone’s site checking out their artwork and enjoying the tips I find. I do this many times a day till I realize I must get up and do something…then I’m back at it again! Housework YUCK…Quilting sites YEA!!!!!!!
I’m going to say at least 5 hours, and that’s on top of a full-time job! (Still found a little bit of time to do some quilting of my own this week, too…)
I’ve spent about 3 hours and I’ve got to get to Day 4 still! I do like Swiss Chocolate! Wink! Sandi
I have probably spent about 10 hrs. (2 each day) looking at blogs on the blog tour. What a very talented group of quilters!
I estimate to have spent at least 8-10 hours total this week reading and dreaming and scheming and drooling and having a blast. I’ve added many blogs to my list to return and keep a check on. If I could only WIN SOMETHING that would be icing on the cake!
About 8 hours. I have to actually sew sometime!
I’d say a good 1 1/2 hours a day cruising all these blogs-what fun it was!
Oh my gosh….I KNOW it’s been alot, because we have such slow internet…but I went to every blog you listed so I would estimate about 3 hrs. each day, so 15 HOURS this week…goodness, I am a bit embarrassed, especially since my husband was home Thurs. & Fri. so had to “sneak in” some internet time to get to all the links! But it was worth it, and I bookmarked many and am now a follower of so many new sites…I think it was worth it. It feeds my quilting addiction! Thanks for a great week!
Well with a few hours a day, I would say at least 8 hours. That is not including the ones I stayed at longer to check out what else was on their blog or the ones I bookmarked so I can go back to see more, when I have time;)
Debbie
I am guessing between 1 and 2 hours each day – it has been a lot of fun!!! THANK YOU!!!!

Holy smokes, easily more than 20 hours! Lots of info and ideas for me, tho, so I’ll will say it was worth it!
This week I’ve spent at least 20 hours visiting blogs — mainly with your blog tour . When I visit I don’t just read one post — I read past posts by that designer too. This is why I spent too much time online this week and too little time doing housework! Please enter me into the drawing.
Hoolay smokes that winner is going to be on cloud 100!!! I have spent more time than I can count. I have added several new blogs to my already long list of blogs I read, but who can pass up all this amazing quilting inspiration goodness!!!
Probably spent about three or four hours a day visiting all the fun blogs. Who knew there were so many out there?! Good thing it is slow at work this week as I would not have had the time otherwise. Thanks for the exposure to so much interesting information, great people and wonderful quilt blocks. TOO many quilts and not enough time ever!
This week? About 10 hours.
About 3 hours directly on the linked blogs but another 3-4 hours link hopping from them. Darn you hyperlinks, killers of productivity. I still haven’t finished the binding on the baby quilt I need to send out tomorrow morning.
Family todos this week limited my time to about an hour. The blocks I saw are wonderful.
I spend at least 2 hr.s a day. I really enjoy reading all about the sites.
Who can keep count!!!! I kept getting deeper and deeper in each blog I entered………
I couldn’t tell you how long I’ve been looking at the blogs, but I get sore from sitting so long! Thanks for the chance to see so many more blogs!
nelfamily at windjammercable dot net
Oh, my….a lot of time it seemed like, but probably only a half hour each day visiting new quilty blogs. I had to keep up on the other 100 blogs I read besides which can take up to 3 hours! Good luck everyone!
My 1st time here, but will return
Wow, my first thought was way too much time. I got lost out there a few times. My guess has to be 10 hours in all. It’s been great fun. Thank you.
I know that I spent at least 15 hours since Wednesday checking out all the blogs. I have not done today’s feature designers yet, so I see a good 2-3 more hours checking out all the blogs for today. I have enjoyed reading about the designer’s and their blocks. I really would love to win this magazine in the blog hop, but if I do not win, I will have go out and buy the magazine after previewing all the different blocks. This was a great way to preview the magazine before it hits the shelves. Thanks for putting this together for us.
Hi: This is my first time, but look forward to visiting again tomorrow. I have the first two volumes and have shared with my daughter-in-law, enjoying every quilt design. I have spent 30 minutes, thank you so much.
I’ve spent at least an hour a day, sometimes more. I am in awe of the vision and talent of these ladies and a few gentlemen. Thanks for the tour. It’s been fun even if I don’t win a prize I have gained so much in inspiration.
Time flies when you are having a good time! I probably spent 4 or more hours! It was a great opportunity to peek behind the curtain of these talented quilt designers! Thanks for the fun tour!
Judy
Not nearly as much time as I’d like. I put in alot of hours at work this week so I only spent 2-3 hours on the blog. I’ll make up for it this weekend!!!!
Oh my! I am drooling over all those great prizes. Please pick me!

What a fabulous way to be exposed to additional sites…I’ve spent nearly 4 hours per day so that equals nearly 20 hours. My stash is in the same room as the computer so I have been chosing fabrics to go with the blocks shown & can not wait until Vol.III arrives.
Thanks for another anthology of blocks…one can never have too many block ideas.
This is my very FIRST blog posting ever! This could get addictive! (having a new high-speed internet connection helps!) I am amazed at all the participants!
I’ve discovered many wonderful blogs this week that I’ve added to my “must visit” list! Hate to admit it, but I’ve probably spent at least 15 hours this week (M-F) visiting blogs. Don’t tell anyone but (ssshhh…I’ve even sneaked some peeks while at work)
)
I’m afraid to calculate the amount of time. It’s been alot, but I am sooooo motivated. I’m just learning to quilt and can’t wait to be able to do some of the beautiful things I’ve seen this week.
I don’t even want to know how much time I spent on quilty blogs this week–A LOT. Oodles and oodles of time. But it was all worth it for the wonderful inspiration!!!
Well, I will admit that I haven’t cooked a “real” dinner this week and I let my son stay up an hour and a half past his bedtime, just so I could spend more time looking at blocks! Obviously, I’ve spent more time than I should have.
Probably a good 10+ hours.
Pingback: *100 Blocks: U.S. Readers Giveaway | Quilty Pleasures Blog | How To Quilt
Probably an hour a day, which would be 7 hours a week. I have just retired, so I can spend more time reading the blogs. I learn so much from them!
I have spent a good bit of every day this week on the blog tour – estimate would be 30+ hours of reading and linking pleasure! Unfortunately, not much else got done this week, but I sure had fun and learned a lot!
It’s hard to say – I would go through the list here and there when I had time. I’d say between 30 minutes and an hour a day, so I’ll estimate 4 hours. I’m probably kidding myself and I’ve actually spent much more time than that!! Thanks for all of the great links and fun this week!
I’ve read, I’ve followed and I’ve very much enjoyed the blog hop. I’ve spent about 2 hours a day and have enjoyed everyminute of it. Thanks for the chance at the giveaway. Hugs.
Have spent at least two hours a day, so 10-12 hours total at a minimum. It’s been wonderful-found lots of new-to-me designers to follow and lots of old favorites. Looking forward to finding the block book next week.
I don’t keep track, I just enjoy the time looking for patterns, projects and enjoying the beautiful work of others.
I do not blog. I am doing good to do facebook and email. However if the blog has a place to sign up to get the updates written on a blog to come to my email I can do that. I get to read some blogs that way. I have tried to reduce my time on a computer so that I can spend more time stitching. It is sorta working out better. Love some of the things offered this time, have all of J. C. ‘s fiction of Elm Creek. (I read in the bathtub) Applique is my fav type of quilting with embellishments of course. But this year I am designing also. Go to my daughter’s blog “Little Ladybug’s Creations” we have just started a free embroidery BOM. I draw and stitch and my daughter is the techie.
I’d guess 6-8 hours, but this is the gift that keeps on giving….I’ve added some of the designers blogs to the list I read via Google!Reader!
This is a very busy time on the farm and I’m also on a short deadline with a biggggg project, but I’ve stolen about 1/2 hour every morning and evening checking in. It’s been wonderful!
I have spent 3-4 hrs.. not as much as I would have liked to spend but I was away from my computer a couple of the days!
I think I put in about three to four hours this week.
I’ve been hopping all week. Now I’m hoppin to get started creating my own version of many of them. Thanks for the fun and a chance to see what is going on for so many quilty friends.
It has been fun and very inspiring. Thank you and Happy Quilting!
Oh gosh, I spent most of the night last night!
It is quite addicting! Find a quilty blog, follow it to another, and another, and another! It was great fun!! lol Thanks for all the new to me sites!
I love to read blogs, get ideas, and catch the enthusiasm. I have visited many of the blogs and will keep checking on them as long as I can. Thanks! Betty
Lovely prizes! I wish I could say I have spent a ton of time visiting blogs from the hop, but I do have to work for a living!
I would say I have spent an hour each night, so 5 hours total. Not a lot I know, but better than none!
About 6 hours this week!
I’ve spent about 4-5 hours this week on the 100 Quilt Blocks blog tour. Added lots of quilt blogs to my favorites list. Thanks for the giveaway.
Way, way too much time, but it was so worth it. I went to visit blogs I might never have visited before and spent time poking around most of them to see everything. Glad this doesn’t happen very often or I might not get anything done.
I can’t even begin to guess, time I should have been sewing, lol. I never knew there were so many quilt blogs. Loved all the pics. Thanks.
True Confessions?? at least 5-8 hours. Blogs put a serious dent in my sewing time.
Oh my I think I have spent a good10 to 15 hours going into different blogs. My husband says a lot more hours than I am admitting to!! I have gotten caught up in all these blocks and sites. It has been a blast and I have enjoyed ever minute of it!! he he Congratulations on the magazine!!
I think I spent about 15 hrs looking at quilty blogs this week! Oh dear, don’t tell my husband!!!!! But it was great fun and I learned alot.
I only spent 4 to 5 hours on this but it has opened up a new world for me. I didn’t know much about Blogs before. What a lot of fun!
I have spent 10 – 12 hours but wished I could have spent more, but I have to work to support my quilting habit. The blogs were wonderful. I had no idea how many blogs existed and I am always impressed by all the creativity quilters have.
Oh gosh, this will be totally embarrassing but I don’t work and all my kids are grown and out of the house. I’ve been planning ahead knowing I’d be spending a lot of time on my computer this week so I was ready. Between reading the blog posts related to Issue 3 and then more time reading some blogs a lot more if I’ve never visited before. And then even more time emailing with some of the blog owners that were super nice in sending a personal thank you for posting to their blog or to answer a question or comment from my post to their blog. Taking all that into account, my best guess would be at least 20 hours this week already.
This is a wonderful prize package! Thank you for sharing and encouraging us through your givaways!
I haven’t spent nearly as much time as I would have liked browsing through the designers blogs. We are being transferred to the boonies in Nebraska, so in lue of my time on the blogs I was looking for a new home with enough space for my first “real” quilting studio; Similar to Judy Laquidara from Patchwork Times. Her Homefront situation is way to familiar and helped me chuckle over my own recent experiences. In many ways I found several kindred spirits in what I was able to read and was truly inspired. I have lots of new ideas and inspiration for when I get to settle into our new home.
Winning this package would be the icing on the cake for sure! I could drink my Chocolate Caramel coffee in that colorful mug and use the ” The Union Quilters” by Jennifer Chiaverini with my girls while we finish their Civil War research for homeschool. Good luck everyone.
Wow! Didnt think you could top the first one and then you did number two. I am so liking this number 3 book’s designs. I did use pattern to make a quilt. very pretty. Looking at those prizes would make my birthday that much better as tomorrow I will be attended my uncle’s funeral –he can now go fishing all the time–he died the day before my birthday. RIP Vernon.
I have spent at least 20 hours, but who is counting??? Thanks to all for donating such wonderful prizes. But the best prize will be getting the new magazine and sitting down to dream about how to use my favorite blocks. But before I start a new project I need to finish the one I am working on from the last issue!
Oh, boy…I have had so little time this week as I had a huge Shakespeare costume to finish! As a result, I could only pop into each blog; I missed being about to leisurely browse the bloggers. I would guess maybe four hours total this tour!
It’s Friday. How many hours have I spent since Monday? Probably around 10. How many hours have I actually spent sewing? About 2. Still working on finding that delicate balance!
I honestly can’t tell you how long I have spent on the blogs, probably more than I should have. I know that I have spent at least 1 to 2 hours a day, maybe more since I never paid attention to the time. I have marked several as favorites to go back to again and again and again. Thanks for introducing us to so many wonderful designers.
According to my husband I’ve spent way too many hours on the blog tour but I don’t think I spent enough…probably an hour (or more) each night.
Seems like I spent an hour and a half each day. I loved visiting the blogs and learning more about the designers and their blocks. Can’t wait to see Vol. 3. Each issue has been better than the last. Thank you for a wonderful blog tour!
Not nearly as much time as I would have liked but enjoyed every minute that I spent looking.
Would have liked to have spent more time looking at the different blogs. But I get started reading the blogs and lose track of time as my husband complains. So I only got a short time but I figure I did get an hour or so on some nights. Anxious to see it on the shelf and then my cart and then to my house!!
I think I have spent about 3 hours, but I could have spent longer! It has been great seeing new blogs
I would guess about 7-8. I missed out on Day 4 except for a couple of blogs. I was busy sewing binding on 4 baby quilts to donate to the Alabama tornado victims.
It varies from week to week how much time I spend. It is at least 3-4 hours. I find them all so inspiring and up lifting. Find alot of new ideas that gets the juices flowing.
I actually have not spent as much time as I would *like to* visiting quilty blogs, but still manage to log about 5-7 hours a week.
I have spent at least 3 hours everyday this week. So much to see and so little time.
Probably just a couple of hours. But I have already purchased the magazine and can’t wait to start some of the blocks that are in it. Do you count the time that I have spent looking at that?!
Oh, do I have to? Wow, I bet with your blog tour, and the regular blogs I check, in the morning, and the evening, and in between…at least 3-4 hours a day (oh, no!). So about 24 hours. That’s so sad. Especially if I don’t win a copy of 100 Blocks #3 after all that effort. Now I’m depressed. But I had fun. Thanks for asking!
I’m an avid blog reader and spend (too much) time on the computer instead of in my sewing room. I’d estimate 18 hrs minimum.
I had a blast and found some new blogs. Thank you! I’m looking forward for the next 100 blocks and can’t wait to get my hands on the magazine.
I have to say I just recently found this site so I haven’t spent much time here, but there are several, ok, alot of blogs that I follow and this past week I’ve probably spent at least 10- 15 hours drooling over my keyboard. I do have to say that is more than I would usually spend due to recent surgery and being off work, but it has allowed me to add to my “someday” list, which is longer than I am tall, lol! Good luck to everyone but I gotta say..I hope I win!!!
My neighbor just told me about this blog and I haven’t left the computer yet. Soooo many blogs to check out and get wonderful ideas. Can’t wait to get my copy of 100 blocks and enjoy over a cup of tea.
I have probobly spent about 10 hours visiting quilting blogs this week. Ther’s so much great stuff out there to see!
About 4 hours in all. Some blogs I just scrolled through and some I read older posts as well. Thanks to all for the fun and inspiration.
i am pumped up for this book so many options my brain is on overlaod!! i have told my friends about this issue and just hope they stay out of my way in the check out lane! ha ha
martha from minnesota
I probably spent about five hours looking through the various blogs and websites. I noted several that I will want to visit again.
This has been a Great week reviewing and previewing Quiltmaker’s 100 Block contest. My favorite block is ‘Sunnyside Up’, cutist is ‘In the Bag’ and best of all is ‘Sunblock’. Reading how each design was created and fabric used was interesting as many hours went into creating these special designs. Thanks, and I look forward to seeing all 100 in the magazine soon!
Guessing I spent about three hours reading Quilt/Stitching blogs. Thanks so for sharing!
Probably 6-7 hours..come on, I had to visit my other favorite places, too!! LOL Thanks for great fun and introducing me to some new designers!!!
20 hrs…said very guiltily!
the time just flies by checking out anything quilty, and getting all kinds of inspiration. But to make a guess- about 7-10 hours
Not sure, but at least 6 hours. I was delayed in looking with my computer out of order until Thursday. I love the 100 block magazines. 1st time participating in the blog tour and really enjoyed seeing the designers blogs and some of the ideas of how to use the blocks. Thanks for all the fun!
Oh, wow, how to estimate how many hours visiting quilty blogs? Since I don’t do it all at one time, I’d say maybe 4 hours, but that might be a low estimate since one click can lead to another and another! So much to see and I’m so thankful for all the generous sharing of the bloggers! Amazing! Thanks, too, for the generous giveaways!!!
I estimate about 8 hours were spent visiting blogs. I wish I could’ve spent more time! Thanks so much for offering these giveaways!
So many hours spent admiring quilts today! Wow! Thanks for such a wonderful opportunity.
I spend at least 3 hours every day looking at quilting blogs. I have one I check a couple times a day and from there i click on links until I finally realize that i have been reading or looking for several hours!
I think I am a slacker this week. I would say about 12 hours for the week. I love reading other blogs and all that I have bookmarked have some form of quilting on them. A lot of tips and ideas can be gained by reading other quilting blogs.
These blogs are dangerous! I could have pieced a top in the time I’ve spent – but how many tops does a person need?! I just LOVE the blogs and have gotten several quilting friends “hooked”, too!! I’m amazed at the generosity of the bloggers – so much FREE information! So, about 2-3 hours a day! Shameful!
At least two hours a day. The bloggers are great. My favorite so far is Amanda Murphy’s Swiss Chocolate. It speaks to my little Swiss heart.
I would say 2-3 hrs per day, depending on the day. The bloggers were inspirational and loved when they showed different settings using their blocks.
love the blocks. I have only spent about an hour this week – company in the house for mother’s day.
Happy mother’s day to all.
Well, I would probably be shocked by the actual time, but I’m guessing around 8-9 hours, but it’s been a BLAST!! Thanks for the fun and the chance to win these wonderful gifts!
I would guess I probably spent 8-9 hours reading blogs on this blog hop. I really enjoyed seeing some new blogs and visiting blogs I haven’t visited for a while. It’s always fun to see what inspired the block designers and how they have used the block. I won a copy of the 100 block magazine and have already received it from Cheryl Haynes. I see something new every time I look through it. I will also be getting out the other two 100 Blocks and dream a quilt through them too. Thank you Quiltmaker for another successful magazine and hop!!
Wow! What a haul! For my estimated time spent around quilty blogs this week I’d put down the number 5, as in hours. Thanks for the great week of fun and the killer giveaway.
Not a lot of time ..only the last 30 minutes or so….been planning a quilt retreat for next week. but love your site and really love Quiltmaker Magazine. I’m kind of new to blogging, so its an adventure. Started with Quilt Happy Quilt Often its one of my favorites.
Not as much as I’d like! Maybe two hours or so…
I didn’t spend nearly as much time as I would have liked but I am thrilled to have so many new blogs to follow and gain inspiration from.
I didn’t spend nearly as much time as I would have liked to, maybe a couple hours at most. I just didn’t have the time, but there’s nothing to keep me from going back and exploring some more!
I would estimate that I spent 1 hour per day visiting all of the blogs. I was very interested to learn more about the block and how the designer had ideas to layouts, etc. I would find that I had to at some point say…off the computer because one blog leads to another link to another link. In any event it really sparked my interest and I hope to get my hands on the magazine. I would also like to try to get the previous issues as this was all a new find to me.
I have spent hours looking at the blogs and have bookmarked many that I want to return to.I love your magazine! I have just started quilting and I’m definitely hooked.
I don’t know how much time I spend reading the blogs. As so as I get home I am at the computer / sewing room. If I read something I like to try, I do. I love the quiltmaker magazine it has alot of interesting projects to do. Thanks.
It was a crazy busy week at work and home, so I only got around on day 1… much to my dismay. So only about 30 minutes. I’ll be scouring the newsstands though – love the blocks I saw!
How much time? I don’t really know! A couple of hours, at least. I love looking at the designs, and I enjoy reading other’s thoughts about quilting.
Sorry to say but I haven’t spent any time at all. Maybe next time.
I spend at least an hour a day visiting blogs so I would guess that I spend 7-8 hours weekly, probably more. I’m so excited about your generous, fantastic giveaway and thank you for the opportunity to win.
I haven’t been able to spend ANY time on this year’s 100 Blocks contest due to family committments. But last year I spent close to 10 hours surfing all of the wonderful blogs I was introduced to through this contest….(gasp!!). Does that count?!!
Almost missed my dr’s appt. Lost track of time browsing this site. Spent about an hour drooling
I’d guess at least 12 hours. Everyday at lunch and then a few breaks as well – all at work. Then I’d go home and look some more. It’s hard to really know. I just know I didn’t get fired for looking so that’s good!
You got me hooked! I’ve been busy with my quilting as your blocks inspired me so much. It had been way too long since I had done some quilting. Thanks!
Each day I’ve looked a little longer. I can’t get enough. The more I look, the more ideas I get. We’re in the process of having new carpet installed so my sewing machine is packed up for a while. I’m having withdrawals. I’ve been hand paper piecing hexagons to keep myself sane. Well, semi sane.
I am completely overwhelmed but love reading all the blogs and looking at sites,
Ok I have to admit I have only squeezed in about 30 min this week but I do have a good excuse for my lack of time, I just had a new little quilter! Now its just a wait till we start her sewing lessons 6 months is not to early is it?
I spend about an hour a day reading quilt blogs. What a terrific way to share information. Thank you for the effort you put into this site.
Soooooo many that it’s keeping me up til the wee hours of the morning !!!
cuz one blog leads to another blog to another blog to another blog etc……
WE had a lot of FUN THANKS!
This was my first time for a blog tour. It was fun checking out many different blogs. I probably spent 4-5 hours. The 100 Blocks volumes are such a great idea. I’ve purchased all 3 volumes and enjoy all the beautiful blocks. Thank You for the fun contests and gifts. I was the lucky recipient of Marsha McCloskey’s beautiful block from Vol. 2. Thank You!
I love visiting Quilting Blogs! I get such fun ideas and see some beautiful talent! I would have to say about 5 hours a week…seriously at least 5 hours! I’m addicted…
I really like looking at all of the blogs, but didn’t have time to comment on them all. They were all very inspiring. I probably spent 5 – 6 hrs looking at quilt blogs this week.
What a great experience, loved every minute reading all the blogs. A couple of them I even read twice. The blocks are awesome and the indivual stories are great to read about. Hope the kids enjoyed their ice cream. Plus that box of chocolate. I spent at least 8-10 hours this week reading, and loved every minute of it. Thanks for the great blog.
I’ve at least spent a good 3 or 4 hours or more, maybe double? It’s so fun to click around and visit the designer’s blogs and webpages!!!
thanks so much for the fun – can’t wait until the 4th issue.
