nice gesture!!!!!
There are kind people still left in the world
The other day I had a lot of patterns and 2 ladies wanted it. One lady was very interested in one particular pattern and I asked the buyer if she would mind if the lady bought the pattern and I replace it with another one. She agreed so we have 2 happy ladies. It is good to share and be willing to help one another.

What a heart warming experience, thanks for sharing. I feel there are many more wonderful people in this world than the bad ones. We hear of more bad than good....newspapers and television want to be the first to have the story. Perhaps the good are just a little humble. Glad the good ones are part of the QB. Have a WONDERFUL day.

Hi Mimom,
I work a 14 hour day on Saturdays and did not get a chance until now to check out your sale. Would you please let the buyer of #1 - Navy blue with stars - know that I am desperate for 1/4 yd of this fabric? I make small flags for veterans and caskets of deceased soldiers. It looks like this fabric (thanks for the ruler on the side) is absolutely the right size for a field of 50 stars in them. I've been searching and I missed it. 1/4 yd would go a long way in making them and/or their families very happy.
I passed the message on to the person who bought the fabric and she replied:
Please cut the 1/4 yard and pass it on to her for me. I'll pay the full price but she is welcome to the 1/4 yard.
Thanks,
Joanne
I offered Joanne any piece of fabric from my stash and she declined.
If the whole world was like these people, we wouldn't have wounded soldiers.
