This is sewing project that I referred to in my 'deflated' post. When you se pic you can understand why I was a tad upset by the hurtful remark.

3103The quilt is absolutely beautiful and one that everyone I know would love to own. I missed what your co-worker said but based on the photo I don't see how anyone could criticize your quilt. Plus, the fact that you spent the time and money involved to make it for a great cause says even more about you as a person. Please don't let the co-worker bother you anymore. Some people can't handle not being the center of attention themselves and it is those that don't ever do anything for others from their heart.
You are obviously a generous, caring person. And you are a 'Cutie'. You can't get any better than that! :) :)

thankyou Marcelle - I love what I do & how I do it- this was just an unexpected remark and when I hear the cancer survivor's stories this remark makes me stronger in my aim to 'do for others'
6340You have certainly made something to be proud of!!! Your co-worker was jealous of such good work she just had to see if she could find a flaw. I like Muffy's comment about the Amish making sure there is a mistake as only God can be perfect, so your next comment to your coworker could be: "I had to make sure there was a mistake of some kind as only God can be perfect and it's good of you to notice - thanks!"

38558I just love this quilt that you have made. You are very generous to offer such a lovely piece for charity and I am sure they appreciate it. You have reason to be very proud of your achievement. Very beautiful. You deserve a hug and lots of flowers for this one.******

21543You made this beautiful generous quilt? It is beautiful! She was so thoughtless and heartless to criticize your work! Sometimes you just can't understand what would possess someone to do what she did....move on, she may have been having a bad day herself, and you got the brunt of it.

10333The Amish make the most beautiful quilts in the world, but they always make sure there is at least one mistake in each one. They feel that only God can be perfect.

5172This is great work and you should be very proud of yourself. I hope your co worker does not win this wonderful quilt. Keep sewing and enjoy what you do best. Hugs Shirley

just didn't expect it I suppose - the Fighting the BIG C is very close to my heart & was really taken aback but I'm 'Fighting fit' now
59631I put up this pic as I'd deleted the original photo of quilt( silly me) and wanted to show it off.
