Maria this is a good idea. It should be someone who is fun loving on cute no matter what. I know 2 who i would choose but i'm not telling... Glad its you not me to decide. Happy filtering through all hopefulls. Good luck all :) Oh and Thanks Veronika for this fun game :):):)

I'm not much of a talker to get flowers, but i give them to everyone. I never can afford to purchase the membership, but would love to have it. Thanks in advance. blessings, becky

Maria my love, I can tell you that my good friend Joanie here on CUTE would be honored receiving the scholarship. She has worked so hard getting through school basically living on beans and rice. She is ALWAYS upbeat, loving and so worthy of a blessing.

Camylow - Deanna
Lbrow - Lillian
Shirlener88 - Shirlene
Manami - Yoriko

Hugs Yvonne

Maria, you will choose well - I am sure of that - you have a good list - of wonderful ladies here and I hope you have a fun time selecting them. *4U

Maria,i think that everyone on cute deserve the six months membership,because we are a big cute family and because we all try to help each other,good luck with choosing,gr connie

I am new to all this and have been reading all the blogs I also have become addicted after my sister inlaw told me about the site and I started collecting the flower alpha. Anyway my question is: What is the Miss Loretta Scholarship? I thought I had investigated everything but I guess not!

I think you will choose wisely...there are a few here that are not financial able that would make a great choice...search the postings in personals to see who has a need....good luck in your quest....

I would like my friend, Yvonne Castelyn, to be the next winner. She has done this amazing thing by introducing me to your wonderful site. Not once didn't she helped me with a problem. She even showed me where to buy some embroidery stuff. Thank you Yvonne. Good luck with your choice, may the best woman be honored.

I think that you can consider the cuties that are not able to afford a membership because of their circumstances. You can go to the "personals" and make your choice Maria. Good luck whatever you decide.

Maria,
I think that iris2006 has a wonderful idea. It would be nice to give the scholarship to someone who can't afford one. Whatever you decide, I know that the Cute community will be behind you. Good luck!

my nomine is blhamblen she is a great person

This is a very difficult decision; your choice will be the best one but I think that every Cuties that are not paying members are not for only one reason: 'we cannot afford it' and I think that MissLoretta Scholarship was created in that intention

OH Maria, this is a tough decision! I also know two Cuties that I would give the membership, I'll PM you who they are. But I also know you will do the best and we will respect your decision. Love and blessings, Yoriko

Hi Maria, you have a big decision to make and I am sure you will choose the right person. As many have said before me have a look on the personal tab and you can see who is doing it "tough". I know of 2 who would just love it - good luck with your selection.

Love and blessings Chris

Your decision will be the right one. I'm sure that you are aware of those who are having difficulties and would benefit most from a free membership. Blessings to you.

Well now let me see, Mary Moore was the first I know recepient, then you, myself I cannot think of a single reason why I should but I know there r those out there who with these times just cannot afford it & have no one to give them a gift of it. I think it should b someone like this but how do we go about finding this out without causing embaressment? Any suggestions?

That's a hard to decide. but in the personal we can sometimes read about cute people who have a financiel hard time.I suggest somebody of those people should be the wright person.Personly I suggest someone of those people who means a lot for cute too. but I'm sure you can make the wright decision. good luck.

What a great idea Maria!

I can think of two people doing it tough who would really appreciate it I will PM you with their names.

Just my personal opinion, but I think it would be wasted if it went to anyone who can digitise.
As much as we all like to collect designs from others, the reality is that those of us who digitise can make any design we want. So, for my part, I would rather it went to someone (as I said) who is doing it tough.
I know your choice will be sound and we all will respect your decision.
Hugs n roses n much love, Meganne

I know you will select the right one for it .if I were in your shoes I would pray about it and God will lead you to the one that needs it.

Maria, You are the only one who can decide and you've gotten some helpful advice already, go to personal and see who's having a tough time. I agree with Meg: digitisers can make their own designs, maybe not as elaborate or beautiful is the designs on Cute, but the only thing they need is time, and that's not something enyone can provide. Tough decision, isn't it, but I'm sure you'll make the right one!! Martine

One of the reasons I haven't yet paid to be a member is that I am on a disability pension living in Australia. I do love your group, if I had my daughters working I would ask for a membership for here, like I did when my DH didn't know what to get me, so bought me a membership at another place at the time for my birthday.
I read that some people are thinking of people that digitize can do their own, well I have done 2 or 3 designs & digitized them, but I am only playing around & can only get the easier designs to digitize... more pure luck & my Buzz software that DH bought when I got my 1st embroidery (computerised) machine last year. Before that I did all my embroidery by freehand, though these days I can't do that because of the arthritis I have in my hands... which is why my DH bought me the computerised one in the first place, he couldn't stand me being in so much pain. He doesn't work now, due to compo on his back injury 4 yrs ago. So if anyone asks where he got the $$$ to buy me a machine.... He used the last of his compo money on it for me.
This September, he & I have been married for 25yrs, & gone through a lot of rough times but stuck it out.
I know it sounds like "poor me, poor me" & I know there are soooo many more worse off people than me & my little family in this world, I don't normally do this sort of thing, I just go with the flow. But this is the first time I have even asked here, I didn't even know you had such a thing.
Reggie

may I ask "what is the "Miss Loretta scholarship?"
Is it getting six free months of membership on the cutie web site?

you asked for remaining top- so here you go.

I think you have made a great jesture to open it up like this. However, I think it might be best if they would respond to you by way of private message, since that is available. The request may have sensitive information. I know you will make a good choice although a difficult one. Good luck.

I like coming on cute, share good addresses and save time for Cuties are busy who's with their work, advice and offer my digitizer creations but we are likely to do that.... but it would be difficult to choose the next Miss Loretta Scholarship, I just think many Cuties are deserving... is it true ??? Good Luck, it's a hard decision !!!! but if I must mention just one name, I choose Marymoore, I think that she's most needed !!!

I'm bringing this back up to the top for you, Maria. Good luck with your decision! hugs, Marji

I love the designs unfortunately both my husband & I are retired & raising 2 of our grandchildren. I can't buy a lot of designs or afford a membership. I use a lot of the designs that I download to make items to sell. My daughter is an unemployed single mother of 3 with cancer & i try to help her with medical expenses. He estranged husband barely gives her enough money to pay bills.

It's true that everyone needs a chance to reap the benefits of this BLESSING. However; I am blessed to have a job and this moment and the activities of my body parts. Therefore; their is someone who is in GREAT need and I pray that their need is met through this scholarship...FIESTA ;D

No need for me. But I am sure there are others and you will make the right choice as others have said.

Keeping this at the top. Quite a decision that you'll have to be making. (I think that it would be a blessing for someone that is having a hard time right now, health-wise, financial, or otherwise to receive the scholarship.) May God guide you in helping you decide. :-)

I know this is a difficult decision for you to make and I am confident you will make the right choice no matter who recieves the scholorship. Good luck in deciding.

Hello Maria, well what a tough decision you have to make, would be very hard as there are so many lovely people on this site. Good luck to whoever receives it, and I'm sure that you will make the right decision. Sheryl

Wow...what a tough decision...I know you will make a good choice.

Wow. What a hard decision. I know a lot of us are having a hard time these days. But I'm pretty sure there are many worse off than my family. I'm sure you will make the best choice with the information you have. I hope you enjoyed your 6 months.

OH my, what a tough decision.Gook Luck to u.

You have a PM

I think it should go to one of the very giving digitizers that give us all the beautiful designs.I'm fairly new here but i'm sure you will pick the right person.

ttt

You will make the right decision and the Cuties will back you. I personally think it should be someone who cannot afford the subscription. *4u.

Good luck deciding WHO. I am not familiar with what determines a scholarship. Is it the most active on CUTE or the one in the toughest financial situation or what? I would imagine there are some guidelines of some sort?

bump to the top

A very hard decision for you Maria, as I am sure it was for MM when it was her turn to pass it on...you will have to do a lot of sifting thru the choices you will be receiving and I know you will pick the one you feel most deserving....Good Luck my friend...hugs x0x0x0x

Wisdom and discernment to you Maria and to those who grant you wise counsel! To the top!

Oh Maria, so many Cuties and only one membership! In other words sweetie, take your pick - you could do the "Eenie meenie minie moh" thing, haha.

The bottom line is Maria, that you should give the Miss Loretta Scholarship to whoever "you" want to give it to, it's your choice. Everybody deserves it equally, and nobody is going to be upset with you over who you choose. And whoever you choose is sure to be thrilled to be able to download all those fabulous designs from Veronika.

Love and hugs sweetie, and I just hope that you've had fun downloading all those designs for the last six months.
