Oggi niente foto... vi vorrei solo parlare un po' ..ops... scrivere un po'. Innanzi tutto vi dico che il mio vero nome è TEODOLINDA e che qualcuno mi chiama TEODO ed altri LINDA.
Da un po' di mesi mi sento parte del mondo. Ho iniziato alcuni mesi fa....e sono entrata in punta di piedi a far parte di un grande gruppo che come me ha l'hobby del patchwork. Ho conosciuto virtualmente parecchie persone sparse un po' in tutta l'Italia, con le quali mi sono relazionata scambiando idee, consigli, modelli, foto di paesi e di città, ricette .......
Alcune amiche poi- frequentando varie esposizioni, fiere e concorsi in Italia,-le ho conosciute anche di persona.
Un giorno trovando tra i commenti un pensiero in inglese (che mi ha fatto molto piacere) ho deciso di curiosare qua e là tra i vari blog stranieri specialmente inglesi ed americani. Scrivevo solo - CIAO CIAO FROM ITALY- e dopo un po' di volte ho cominciato ad avere delle risposte. Tutte le volte che vedevo un nuovo commento mi sentivo contenta e così vocabolario alla mano (per cercare di capire e di rispondere meglio che potevo) ho cominciato a "viaggiare"... eccomi in Inghilterra, due minuti dopo in America passando per il Canada per poi volare in Australia, in Giappone e poi in Romania, in Belgio, in Germania, una scappatina nella mia Italia e poi in Norvegia, in Olanda e poi.....chissà domani dove andrò!?! Mi piace questa sensazione che provo nel pensare che magari in questo momento qualcuno mi sta leggendo e scrivendo. E' molto bello rendersi conto che grazie ad un hobby ci sentiamo vicine ed abbracciate insieme.
Chiedo scusa per tutti gli errori che faccio ma ci sono dei vocaboli che non si possono tradurre in altre lingue e anche capire a volte è difficile..ma posso comunque sentire la vostra amicizia e vicinanza
Grazie a tutte voi...le mie amiche virtuali lontane e vicine. CIAO CIAO FROM ITALY.
Today no pictures... I would like just to talk a bit with you... ops....to "write". First of all I have to tell you that my real name is TEODOLINDA and that somebody call me TEODO and others LINDA.
In the last months...I feel to be part of the world . I started few months ago....and I took part, very slowly, of a group that has the same hobby I have: patchwork. I met in the Net a lot of people around Italy, we've exchanged ideas, advices, patterns, pictures of lands and cities, recepies ......and with some of them we hade the chance to meet personally in Italy in some exhibitions and competitions.
One day I've found a comment in English (I was so so happy) and I duddently decided to take a look in foreigners blogs... especially English and American ones. I just wrote - CIAO CIAO FROM ITALY - and after a few days I started receiving answers. Every time I saw a new comment I was so happy that with my dictionary on side I'll started write back with my feelings and thoughts...and start fling (for now virtually) from England to America passing through Canada, then heading to Australia, Japan and why not... Romania...sometimes coming back for a brief visit in Italy and then going to Norway, Belgium, Holland, Germany and....who knows where I'll be tomorrow!?! I like the feeling I have when I think that now maybe someone, somewhere is reading my blog and leaving a thought for me. It's great that our hobby make us so deep close together.
I'm sorry for the mistakes..but sometimes some words have no translations in other languages...and also for me it's sometimes hard to understand but i feel you close to me.
Thanks to all my close and far virtual friends. CIAO CIAO FROM ITALY.

Teodo-- I have been privileged to live in other countries and have found it necessary to learn other languages. It's never been perfect, (French, Spanish)but it has gotten me by... so don't you worry about any "mistakes" at all, I applaud your courage, my friend! Ciao, Ciao! :)
Teodo, I don't have a blog, but I came across yours and others because I, too, am a quilter. I don't even recall whose blog I found first. Now I probably spend far too much time reading them. It is exciting to see all the places the writers are from. Our quilting "community" draws us all together.

Aren't blogs fantastic? Like you, I love to be in touch with people from all over the world. And I think your English is bellissima.
Really Internet is a great invention. I began connecting with spanish quilters and now, you see, with other countries. I think it's a wonderful world...
Teodo - I love reading your blog and you are doing very well with your English! It's nice having blogger friends all over the world!
CIAO CIAO from Germany
The www is a "wonderful world"...
Peggy, thank and I hope you'll come back. ciao ciao
Teodo, I'm happy that you & I made a "blog connection" already and I love to find your comments on my blog. Your English is so good. I wish I was bilingual (or more!) but English is the only language I can read & write. Ciao, Ciao from USA.
Great Linda !I'm very happy to be your friend.ciao ciao from Italy
Thanks to YOU, Teodo ! Ciao, ciao, amica !
E un grando piacere di liggere il tuo blog. Questi "patchappuntamenti" fano un meraviglioso quilt virtuale !.....
Baci.....
NADINE.
Hi Teodo! I wanted to send you a BIG thank you for telling me about your thyroid problems, and for the encouragement that you give me! :-D I am always thrilled by the comments that you and other new "friends" leave for me, and just wanted to let you know how I value your internet "friendship" also! :)
i first began blogging back in July 2006 and really didn't know a lot about it. Now 9 months later i'm amazed at how many people i have "met".
I admire you being able to translate to English so that we can also read your blog. Thank you.
By the way, you don't show your email address on your profile so i couldn't reply to you privately last week when you left a question on my blog. (my parents were born in Trieste) ciao
Ciao Teodo,
Anch'io vivo la stessa esperienza bellissima simile alla Tua.
Ti invito, quindi, di visitare anche l'Ungheria - almeno virtualmente.
Teodo, thanks for stopping by my blog - I've only been at this a very short time too, but it is a wonderful way to spend a few minutes "traveling around the world".......your pictures, your work and your thoughts - they are great!
I has been nice to me you too! It is amazing to talk "write" to wonderful people from all over the world. I am not a very good writer and have difficulty saying things with words ( and english is the only language I know) Don't concern yourself with the words - it is the feelings and ideas that are important. It is a great thing we do, making friends all over the world.
I meant to say it has been nice to MEET you too! (point proven with my english -- LOL)
Linda, what a nice post you made today. Don't even worry about mistakes . . you're doing great! I love reading your blog and there's no way I would attempt to translate mine into a foreign language -- I'd get myself in big trouble probably.
Thanks for taking the time to translate to English for us English speaking quilters.
I'm pleased that you "spoke up" and left comments rather than just lurking. I would never have found your delightful weblog and those of some of your friends. I very much appreciate that you translate yours. Although, pictures are worth many words and I do appreciate those weblogs that I cannot read.
Ma che bel nome!!!! Non si dimentica mica! Io ho iniziato a chiamarti Toedo perchè è la tua firma web, non avevo mica capito che era un diminutivo!
Ti ricordi la trasmissione radio che iniziava con "Amici vicini e lontani"? Ecco, quando leggo i commenti sui blog, non solo sul mio, penso che è una fortuna poter accedere a questa rete che ci fa sentire tutte vicine nonstante il fatto che fisicamente siamo lontane.
Hai proprio ragione, è una gran bella sensazione :)
Ciao, ciao dal Friuli Venezia Giulia :)
cara Teodolinda il tuo nome è bellissimo nome da regina,anch'io ho appena iniziato il blog ed è proprio vero,ti senti parte del mondo e,se come me,hai un pò di problemi a viaggiare,questo è il modo ideale per farlo...a proposito il tuo presepe è bellissimo e ogni tanto me lo vado a scrutare...io abito a Giulianova Lido in Abruzzo,il mio blog è Dianaquilts.blogspot.com
BEAUTIFUL BLOG
GOOD END OF WEEK
Andrea
Yes! Definitely thank you for taking time to translate. I am so pleased to have made your acquaintance! And to be considered one of your world wide blogger friends. I look forward to reading your blog everyday! Thanks for commenting on mine.
Bellissima cosa internet!come te mi sento parte di questo grande mondo grazie a questa invenzione straordinaria e come te ho conosciuto virtualmente e non amiche con le mani d'oro...mi incanto a vedere quello che create!!!!diventate maestre ed ispiratrici :))))))))....
buon weekend
ciao ciao da Trieste!
Grazie Linda per quello che hai scritto!!!E' lo stesso sentimento che proviamo tutte noi. Io sono felice di averti incontrato grazie a questo blog :)))
Thanks Linda for what you have written!!! And' the same feeling that we try all of us. I am happy to have you known, thanks also to this blog:)))
TEODO ...Thank you for the visit on my blog! I'm a beginner in quilting and tatting too. I use to paint as a hobby but a few weeks ago I met the art of quilt and this bring a lot of joy in my life. I'm glad to see your creation and I hope to know each other better. So, Ciao, Ciao! or Salut! Sma
Teodo - I feel the same way. I really enjoy being connected with the whole world through patchwork and the internet. I always get excited when I get a comment from you!
Thank you for taking the time to translate your blog for us.
And I'm from New Zealand and I love your blog. It is great that you take the time to translate for us. Thank you.
thank you for visiting my blog.Your works are also very beautiful. I love them Bye
HEJ (= Hi in swedish)
Thank you so much for your nice comment at my blog!
Yes, this is fun to meet so many new friends from the whole world. i am not good at english, but it is the way to go, because very few people speak swedish! But we learn us more and more, didn´t we?
Teodo - well said, even in English (your English is very good, don't worry)! I agree with you, I love about blogs and blogging and the internet that you can fly all over the world and "talk" to people with similar interests - and get so much inspiration from others.
G'day Teodo from Australia!
I love reading your blog and think your work is great. Oh and I thank you for translating your blog for us.
Ooops - forgot to say, G'day = hello in Australia. It's a shortening of good day - Australians are in the habit of shortening many words making translation/understanding even more difficult for those trying to learn!
Hello, I'm with you almost every day. Nice thoughts. Long live patchwork!
Ciao from Norway :-)
Quilting is an universal language and your English is good. I like your 4 seansons (quattro stagione ?)quilt.
Tu scrivi che sei contenta di pensere che forse c'è qualcuno che ti legge da qualche parte... infatti, io ti sto leggendo da Deauville in Francia, in Normandia per essere precisa.
E ora capisco perche Teodo, e mi piace molto il tuo nome entero? Teodolinda, è un nome che canta, ma non solo, balla anche perche sembra ondeggiare quando si pronuncia.
Mi piace molto anche il mio modo di scoprire il tuo blog... alla rovescio, e di sentirmi tanto vicina anche se a più o meno 2000 chilometri. Capire che le tue attese, le tue scoperte, le tue speranze sono simile alle mie, anche se sono più anziana di te, ma da tanto tempo ho capito che l'età non conta !
Per questa sera, è ora di salutarti e lasciare il tuo blog, il computer e badare alla cena. Presto torno a scoprirne un po' più su di te.
Ciao
