    What a horrid young woman! You handled it beautifully...much better than I would have. Bless you and I hope that your young quilting friend will learn lots from you, including how to handle idiots. :thumbup:

    Well now we know that in addition to quilt police there are quilt b__tches out there. Lock your doors.

    You handled that situation really well, I hope I will have as much tact and grace someday. There is always a critic unfortunately, and there are no rules to quilting, just creating what you enjoy.

    You handled that very well. When I meet someone like that I always wonder how they raised. I find most fruit does not fall far from the tree.

    This is very similar to a recent story heard here. I cannot believe how rude (and should I say, CLUELESS) some people can be.

    Well if that don't beat all! Some people got a lot of nerve. I guess her momma never taught her respect for others. What's that saying "if you can't something nice then don't say nothin at all!"

    You handled it beautifully ... I'm not sure how I would have handled it ... I guess damaging her is out of the question?
