I want to thank you for being you. After reading this post and I received my mugrug, I knew you were a very special person. I am sure you friend is in a better state of mind, if only for one day. Your mugrug will be in the mail soon.

What nice gesture on your partand DH. I have a couple of friends who are the same as your friend. I hope you set a date for the next date before you end your day each time. Don't just say we will have to do this again and leave it.
Write it on your calendar and stick to it. Nice friends are worth their weight in gold. |
What a nice thing to do for your friend. Sounds like a wonderful day for all of you. :lol:
|
What a wonderful friend you are. Isn't it amazing how much YOU get out of the experience of helping someone else? It is a very uplifting feeling for everyone involved, "A sharing of hearts."
|
Friends and fabric ... both have healing powers!! Does it get any better!
|
Sounds like you all had a wonderful day. She needed it, you provided it, your DD and DGD came along as well. A regular quilting bee!!
|
What a lovely friend you are ...

That is so awesome! You are a great friend!

You are special. Blessings to you

I told her she needed a break and asked her to come and sew. I would teach her to quilt. Well yesterday her , my granddaughter and my youngest daughter all came over for a sewing Saturday. Everyone had a great time and my BFF left with TWO quilts to bind. Yes she peiced and quilted them both, She told me she hasn't had that much fun in a long time. Noone to think about but herself. My DH even grilled our lunch for us. She said she definately needed more fabric therapy so we all decided to meet each month to have one day just for us. I was so glad I could teach her to quilt and to give her much needed ME time. I think we all need that once in a while.

You are a wonderful friend!

I have been planning to buy some charm packs for my beautician. Her husband has been out of work for several years. She needs to do something just for herself,instead of constantly working. She is also a great beautician. Diane C

I think she has a wonderful friend!

that sounds like an absolute dream day. some of my friends dream of a day at the spa--i can't think of anything more relaxing and wonderful than a day with friends of a shared heart, surrounded by fabric and congeniality. your hubby sounds like a part of that dream too! (give him a collective hug from us on the board!)
friend and fabric therapy are among the most healing. you qualify on both counts! |
"board" meaning the bulletin board. i presume to nothing else!!
|
You are a good friend!!!
|
God bless you for doing that. That shows your daughter, your husband and your BFF just how lucky they to have you in their lives!

Happy the day helped your friend, and that you and your family had a fun time, too. Maybe quilting will help lessen your friend's stress level.

God blesss you for your thoughtfulness....It encourages me to do the same....that is soooo important in the lives of so many!

Good for you, you are a true friend! Once she falls in love with quilting, she can do it at home when she needs a little "me" time...well done!
|
You are truly a wonderful friend. So pleased your BFF had a time away from stress to learn quilting. Friendship and quilting can't be beat. Thanks for sharing this heart-warming story. I hope your friends circumstances soon improve.
