IT WOULD BE REMISS OF ME...

... not to take the time to mention just how sad it was to hear the news about Gwen of All My Seams.  I felt that she was truly my friend, although virtual.  I mentioned to her on more than one occasion that I wished I lived next door to her.  She was nice, helpful and often left words of encouragement on my blog posts.  I will forever credit her for helping me alleviate wrinkles on the front of my pants.  What a relief to know just what to do to fix that problem in each and every pair of pants I make.  My pants may not be perfect, but they DO NOT have those front wrinkles.  I feel confident when I wear them - THANK YOU GWEN!

 Gwen was one of my sewing teachers via email.  I had only to email her my question and she would reply back with just the right detailed solution.

I am sure that I am not the only sewing blogger who misses her already...

  9. I am sad too--I cried when I read her daughter's post. She was a such a huge sewing cheerleader of mine. I also felt like she was a friend even though we never met. I commented more about Gwen and what she meant to me on her daughter's post. Definitely am missing her.
