Meeting Rosy - a very special person
 

Hello everyone . . . Well, I would be doing my membership on this board a terrible injustice if I did not send this note . . . all I can say to all who responded to the unbelievable give away basket of scraps from Rosy, and also all others on any chats, threads, tutorials or anything else on this board, who have not met this incredible lady, I had the absolute joy and honor to meet Rosy yesterday for tea . . . what an amazing woman she is, and to see her work first hand is even more amazing. Her home is a place that I could stay in for days just looking at and admiring all her beautiful work; dolls, quilts like you wouldn't believe; paintings, etc. etc.. Warm, gracious, friendly, with an infectious laugh and charming smile AND close by . . . how lucky did I get!! . . . I am new to this area (Winter Park since July) and don't really know anyone as I work from my home and now God has truly blessed me with bringing Rosy into my life yesterday as I know we will be friends for a long time . . . she is so knowledgable and talented and a true delight to be with. . . I had delicious tea, banana bread and good conversation and the bonus on top of all that? . . . I GOT ALL THOSE SCRAPS, HUGE BASKET AND ALL . . . ahhh, for the first time in a very long time, I was NOT at the airport when 'my ship came in' . . LOL . . . so I just wanted to say Thank You to the Quilting Board, old and new, for bringing us together . . . :)

yeah!! I love stories with happy endings!! I've enjoyed Rosie's "sit down and chat" threads as she walks us through her garden. You got to do it in real life - with tea!!

Sounds like you are blessed with a new friend and know it.

How Glorious for both of you,

Thanks for sharing what is a wonderful treat in life ... a new friend!

The only thing to equal an old friend is a brand new one

Sounds as though it was meant for the two of you to meet and become friends. Good for both of you.

:thumbup: I don't know Rosy, but she sounds like someone I would like to know. How special for both of you. Thanks for sharing. BrendaK

I am so happy for you and Rosie but a little jealous!! Thanks for sharing your wonderful experience.

Who is Rosy? I'm in the dark! Enlighten me, please!
