Thanks ladies for all of your comments. I have been a member of that particular guild for more than 25 years. Orginally we met on a member's sunporch. Now it is so big that I don't even recognize many of the faces let alone know all the names. It is kind of a joke among the longtime members with this particular BOM lady. She is also a breast cancer survivor. This sounds horrible but it was the best thing that ever happened to her. She seems like someone who needs attention desperately. We have at least ten other members who are also breast cancer victims. None of them made such a production out of their problem. While she was going through treatment she made sure to always wear her pink t shirt and hat and milked the situation for all it was worth. The area I live in is really small town. The biggest city in the county has probably less than 6000 residents. We have only one hospital.
While I am sorry she had cancer it doesn't excuse her attitude. Her personality has not improved since her illness and recovery. It seems as if controling the BOM is the most important thing in her life. I just hope she doesn't turn people off from quilting with her controling ways.
