There is bad juju, there is good juju.

I am sure you know what side of the fence you quilt on.

I can honestly say I don't think my feeling have ever been hurt like this by a quilter before. I just can't believe that other people say negative things about a person when they have never spoken to them let along it does not matter that they don't know them. No matter what side of the fence they live on. And I thought their points looked great. Juju

juju ... i can absolutely, 1000% guarantee that Tim was not referring to you when he used the phrase "bad juju". His reply to you was also definitely NOT A CRITICISM OF YOU. It's his way of saying that he assumes you're a good person and hopes you realized he hadn't meant you.

juju is a term related to magic and mystical spirits. similar to karma. if you follow this link, you'll see what i mean and understand exactly WHAT (not WHO) Tim was talking about.

there is absolutely no cause for hurt feelings.

JuJu I don't usually butt in people's business but.................... I just can't believe you took that personally, no one on this board is ugly to anyone else, least of all Tim! Sometimes his jokes may not be funny but he would never try to hurt someone's feelings! You may have hurt his by thinking he would. Please don't be offended but you really should not be offended by his remark.

Hi Juju,
After re-reading Tim's comments, I am POSITIVE that he was only taking a shot at his own skills when he said "bad juju". I looked at your webshots, and he was definitely NOT talking about YOUR skills!! And actually, he was wrong about HIS skills too! LOL

maybe the non quilting jokes are not funny to all. Maybe they belong in chitchat :shock: :wink:

juju,
I've only been part of this group a few months, but I can tell you there is no one, no one here that has ever tried to make fun of, or hurt another one here. We've all picked on Tim, he picks back at us, but only those that are picking with him. That's friendship/quiltship. We must be able to take the fun and the joy of it by sharing our colloquailisms with one another. Our country, lands, have candy that's named juju. We have always since the beginning of time used the word juju as a term to describe the "karma" that surrounds something that's not going correctly.

I know that all of us here have enough respect for one another not to be trying to hurt anyone. Give the guy a break, he's brave to foray into the midst of a lot of women, but we really are not the only quilters in the world, there are lots of men women and children quilting.

No offense, No criticism was given. Personal attacks have never stood ground on this board, nor will they in any future.
Whether it is ju-ju or mojo, karma or fate....it seems a little much to have caused such a state. Look at the blocks and you will see...there is nothing wrong there with you or with he.
