Several years ago in another quilting group (different website) I
was having a particularly rough time with my dad for the most
part I wasn't saying anything about it to my "online quilting friends"
Than one evening there was about 15-20 of us ladies in the chat
room and one of them asked about my dad. I guess that was what
broke the "proverbial" camels back with me.
I started crying and was very upset but of course the ladies couldn't
see me, but they could tell from the way I was replying and answering
them that I was very upset.
Long story short I apologized to them and thanked them for letting
me vent my frustrations to them.
About 3-4 months later I received a box in the mail from New York.
I knew who it was from and just thought Missy was sending me some
cool fabric (i was always sending them all a little something as a RAK).
When I opened this box I was so shocked at what I found inside with
a note that all the ladies had sent to the "organizer" of the quilt I received.
Each one of the ladies sent me a personal message as well as made a block
to be included in the quilt. There was 9 blocks total with one of them being
a signature block.
