Does Karen McTavish look like a "typical" quilter? And look at her unique artwork! I dislike stereotypes. We all belong to the sisterhood of quilters and our focus should be on creating the best we can and enjoying the process. How we look should not enter into the equation.
Amen. And Amen.
I believe people are bullies because it fills some sort of inadequacy they have. So really, we should feel sorry for them, because they just don't get it!
I think that with some people, SOME, that being rude back to them is like taking candy from a baby. They don't get it. They are completely ignorant.
But I only feel that way sometimes. :) For those who know better; shame on them.
There's a difference between being unaware and choosing ignorance.
And I think that's all I have to say. :lol:
