I know most people are saying you should tell her but once she figures it out she will have fun reading all of your previous posts. I think I found your blog through a blog hop so maybe you could join one and encourage her to follow it and she will discover your blog that way. If not, then at that point I think I would just tell her.Judy1522https://www.blogger.com/profile/08002999458613812287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990831574131918668.post-14452251784559619242013-02-28T16:12:24.554-05:002013-02-28T16:12:24.554-05:00You should!

Tell her that if/when she needs some help and you aren't readily available for one-on-one, she can check out your blog and see if there is anything that can help her in the meantime. She is getting in-person teaching! I'd much rather have that than go to a blog everytime I needed something - especially for help from my sister :o) She's special and personal, you can also tell her that the blog is your public side and that she is getting the better side of things if she wonks out on you!SpartanBabehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12946956718496264301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990831574131918668.post-79956896841273479602013-02-28T03:28:01.672-05:002013-02-28T03:28:01.672-05:00That's too funny!

That is what any one of my sisters would do. :D I didn't tell anyone that I blogged but here and there friends and family have found my blog and shared it around. I know my daughter reads mine regularly and hubby occasionally peeks in as does my oldest son's inlaws and neighbor of mine.<br /><br />I'm sure your sister will get a kick out of it either way if she's anything like my sisters.

And I don't mind my blog growing to people I don't know. Recently I was trying to tell the one friend I know reads my blog why. I'm scared to be judged by my friends and family and am ok to be judged by strangers. <br />I think you should tell your sister. You are stressing over this and the sooner she knows the sooner your stress goes away.<br />It may take out some of the sting of not telling her sooner by saying "Hey Sis, you should check out this blog (insert URL) for great ideas. " and doing it while you are on the phone together so you could hear her reaction.<br />Good luck with whatever you decide.Vicky Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14441116624710093143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990831574131918668.post-29397643770427787762013-02-27T10:14:03.792-05:002013-02-27T10:14:03.792-05:00I never told any of my family about my blog either...I never told any of my family about my blog either, but my sister eventually "found" it.

It is a great way for those that love us best to keep in touch with who we are. I know at this point part of your indecision is the fact you have kept it secret so long but family forgives AND understands...at least they are suppose to :)Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14496797986349052711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990831574131918668.post-11090701324871857882013-02-27T09:18:24.063-05:002013-02-27T09:18:24.063-05:00I would tell her.

I didn't think I had anything there she'd be interested in since she didn't really sew at all. One day I mentioned it in passing and she was astonished that I hadn't told her sooner. She wasn't mad, she thought it was funny that I had been shy in sharing it when we share so many other things. Since then I have taught her to use a sewing machine and I have created a tote-bag-sewing-monster. :) We don't live too close to each other, so my blog is another way to keep in touch. She doesn't have to read it, but she knows it's there if she wants to check up on me. I say, tell your sister and see the fun places it can lead your relationship. :)Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07978830891894756534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6990831574131918668.post-17323619654581323812013-02-27T08:26:31.170-05:002013-02-27T08:26:31.170-05:00I would be so mad at my sister if she were such a ...I would be so mad at my sister if she were such a popular blogger, and didn't tell me.

I have a hard time with coming out and telling other people that I blog (even other quilters) -- for me it seems like begging people to check out my stuff. With it being your sister I think that you probably should tell her eventulay if she does not stumble upon it herself. I'm supprised that she has not found you yet, I mean how does seh think that you are finding all these things that you are refering her to? you could even refer her to your blog or mention ot her that you blog the next time that you link her to something. This may or may not be something that she is interested in doing herself.
