I don't care what problems this girl may have in her life, mental illness included there is NO excuse for bad manners.

In case I've upset anyone I have a daughter with Bi Polar disorder so have had experience with mental illness. I would never accept this type of rudeness, EVER.
As I said in the previous post you sound like a confident "Lady". and it sound like you are over this.
Keep on Quilting & designing.

I agree - I see this a lot in my work. It is confronting and rude behaviour, and they have no insight into it when they are unwell.
She will also not appreciate anyone mentioning it to her.

I think you handled it very nicely. I was told once that when handling a difficult person imagine them as a small child holding their mother hand and then you can get a better perspective of the person. Because after all we are just people trying to get through each day the best we can.

some people are so stupid. I have a boss that told me that anyone that gave something homemade as gift was just cheap in his eyes, he didn't give back the quilt I made him.

Oh she would have needed prayer if she'd treated me like that!! In fact, I'd have laid hands on her too!!!!! As I threw her rude fanny out of my house!!!!!

Did someone mention Aspberger's? Yes, we can babble on and not be aware of someone's reaction. But there is no excuse for bad manners and being critical of someelse's work. May that young woman figure it out.

Even reading more about this person is just hard to believe. She has to be a very lonely person, because I can't imagine her having any friends as rude as she is. It sounds like her way or no way.

I don't think rude people ever learn, she will go thru life one miserable person when she doesn't have any friends left, or cousins!
