It lies on her bed every night and I smile every single time I see it. She loves it. I love it. Everyone else in my family loves in. I can't think of too many other pieces of art that can inspire such happiness!BloomingLizziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14482903964981498939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878598761175876556.post-43917473274869570552011-07-27T12:37:20.402-06:002011-07-27T12:37:20.402-06:00Hi, I love your blog, I love your MB designs and I...Hi, I love your blog, I love your MB designs and I am sad that someone would think that you stole their design! The hexagon quilt is my favorite on MB! I believe there is nothing really new and everything is an adaptation, that being said this quilt is so original and so awesome it deserves to stand as yours alone!!! Thank you for not giving into those who are negative, keep up the good work. Look forward to more original designs. <br />ThanksJanny https://www.blogger.com/profile/12782091594970495387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878598761175876556.post-42159361892519490922011-07-26T20:57:27.053-06:002011-07-26T20:57:27.053-06:00I am so glad that you decided to carry on!

It is obnoxious when creativity in the public forum receives negativity instead of the support it deserves.

Those of us who put our own ideas out there for people to enjoy must develop thick skins against these kinds of attacks. Kind of takes the fun away, until you find out just how many people love what you do and appreciate it. Keep doing what you love, Natalia. There are many more of US than there are of her! I'd love to see the quilt design she compared yours to. I'm sure it's not nearly as cute or clever.<br /><br />MGMMary Grace McNamarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04994668228832105911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878598761175876556.post-23114942650671818812011-07-23T10:19:15.332-06:002011-07-23T10:19:15.332-06:00It must've felt disheartening to receive such ...It must've felt disheartening to receive such an email, but I'm glad you were able to put it where it needs to be--in the trash!

I think that working with fabric is a happy place and it is just wrong when people feel the need to mar that happiness with false accusations,criticisms or anything else that is negative. You are definitely the one who is the winner by taking the high road! I would be very sad if I wasn't able to enjoy the beautiful work that you do!

It is very exhausting trying to keep her negativity away from your positive world you try to live in. It has been almost 3 years now, noone else can deal with her for an hour when I go to lunch, and they have no idea how I do it. But again I am getting to my breaking point again as well. Some people just are very miserable beings, and very negative people, and only get a little sense of happiness when they make others around them unhappy as well. But they don't see it that way at all. So take a break from the negativity, get in your positive vib again, and move on..........hold your head up high and smile. Because that is who YOU are!Ann Marie @ 16 Muddy Feethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18043510561974011878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878598761175876556.post-49968861861179107262011-07-22T21:05:26.906-06:002011-07-22T21:05:26.906-06:00wow ; I am glad you hung in there !

She said mbs took it off because some board or something decided they already had one close to it .<br />I am glad you are still blogging !
