    I'll say "AMEN" to that. Perhaps we should start a prayer chain, whatever you believe, you can still pray to your mentor.

Is there a better way for me to go about finding the deals on time??
    Just Lee,
    You just have to have this site running 24/7 LOL

    So true!!
    I've always wondered. What would happen if somebody gave a war and nobody came.

    Hi Mimom,
    I work a 14 hour day on Saturdays and did not get a chance until now to check out your sale. Would you please let the buyer of #1 - Navy blue with stars - know that I am desperate for 1/4 yd of this fabric? I make small flags for veterans and caskets of deceased soldiers. It looks like this fabric (thanks for the ruler on the side) is absolutely the right size for a field of 50 stars in them. I've been searching and I missed it. 1/4 yd would go a long way in making them and/or their families very happy.

    I passed the message on to the person who bought the fabric and she replied:

    Please cut the 1/4 yard and pass it on to her for me. I'll pay the full price but she is welcome to the 1/4 yard.
    Thanks,
    Joanne

    I offered Joanne any piece of fabric from my stash and she declined.

    If the whole world was like these people, we wouldn't have wounded soldiers.

    Amen :thumbup:
