Those "Things" werent bought for her... Her next door neighbor shares
the ebay account with her, the lady doesnt have a computer... I KNOW what some people are going to say, why doesnt your mother sell the computer?? Because she needs it to run the business my father and her are in.. After 9/11 they were left with almost no money... they have almost no posessions.. They live in a log cabin they built themself... Anyone want to personally call me to question me on this?? You want to hear the desperation in my voice before you believe me??.. My moms auctions have been the ones where she has sold blocks and trying to sell her quilt.. CNYstitcher wrote in message ... I just checked as well, but I looked at all the feedback. This member bought more often than sold....my question is, if there are money troubles, why is this person BUYING things from ebay???? Larisa, more of a skeptic tha usual, I suppose Kathy in CA wrote: Just for the record there is NO quilt listed for sale with seller "Starranch1" 'cause I just looked it up. There is a seller named "Starranch1" but no quilt. -- Kathy in CA Quilting Stuff: http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/kathys1068 "Cheyne" wrote in message om... Please read this fully...... Thank you for your time! My name is Cheyne, the eldest daughter of my mom. Growing up my mom has always had problems with her weight but the past few years, things have gotten bad for her. After having an emergency hysterectomy and nearly dying from blood loss, she came home determined to make herself better. Doctors have told her that the reason she has problems with her thyroids, very high blood pressure and the slowing in her pace come from the fact that she is overweight. She has seriously high blood pressure that is difficult to control, even with medications and the arthritis in her knees has become crippling. She has tried countless diets, pills, supervised diets, classes everything to help her become a healthier person, but nothing has seemed to work for her. I know that if she was to have the gastric bypass surgery that she so longs for, her life would brighten up finally and she wouldnt have all these medical problems that continously plague her. Rather than asking for donations, I asked my mom to start making me some quilt blocks so I could sell them online to make some money for college bills. She is a very honest, loving person and would never ask anyone for anything; in fact she would probably be embarassed if she knew that I had done this for just because she would feel that people would think she was begging which she is not. She is an absolutely WONDERFUL quilter. She thinks the only chance she might have funding her surgery would be to sell her award winning quilt which is listed on ebay right now *You can see it if you look up "Starranch1" on ebay members*. I really dont want her to do that since it is her prized posession, so I am going to try my luck and see how I do at helping my mom. Heres what I ask from my moms fellow quilters in the world, Send a donation of one dollar, or whatever you wish, and I will send you a heart quilt block for each dollar recieved. Either to use them in a quilt or a picture frame, they are beautiful. The dimensions are 3 1/4" inches square and when sewn into a quilt 2 3/4" square. Need certain colors? Just ask! Please send all donations with a self address stamped envelope so i can send the blocks back to you. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me! Donations can be sent to: Cheyne Maclaskey P.O. Box 1645 Conroe, Texas 77305 Thank you so much and GOD BLESS YOU! If you have any questions, please email me at |
