Party Hat - free cross stitch pattern

Hello, and welcome! Today I'm sharing a totally random cross stitch pattern, but last weekend the inspiration brought me a party hat, who knows why...But anyway, it's still a fun pattern and I'm thinking it will look good on a zipper pouch or something similar.

Why (and when) you should review and re-edit your old blog posts

The first blog post is always a huge leap of faith. Are my ideas good enough to show to the world? Am I doing this right? Am I conveying my message? Is anyone actually going to read my posts and follow my blog?

After a while, it gets easier, you start to get a feel of what your readers prefer to see - and what you prefer to write and share, what images work best and what kind of common structure you want for your posts. You add buttons, a signature, change the colors and the layout - and your first blog posts, no matter how good they were, are probably outdated by now. 

Why (and when) you should review and re-edit your old blog posts



Should you revamp them? The answer is yes. You should even re-write them if you feel the need to do so. This is something I have been doing for a while (slowly, because my time is limited) and I found that it has improved the overall quality of my blog. 

In this post I'll discuss the main reasons why you should review and re-edit your posts, when is the best time to do it and what you can do afterwards to promote them again. 

So here's the why - and the when - you should review your older posts:
