the post I thought I'd never write

It just won't be the same without you. I am so sad. When I think of SMFB...you are the bones of this operation. Everyone <3's you and you will be missed dearly. I read your blog at least once a week...so at least I can get my Anne fix there!!! I do so love your pics from the sewing room window!!!

This breaks my heart. I know I've only been part of the sig making crew for a short time, but I feel like you've been a HUGE part of the success of many makers on this board. You've given so much of your time, knowledge and your kindness and no one will be able to replace that.

Like some of the others already stated, IV will not be the same without you. If the foundation (stability) crumbles (you leaving), what's left? There will be a lot of pieces to pick up and I'm not sure this is one that can be recovered from. You have been the stability on this board and on SS and the one person a lot of members could turn to (WOW! that's a lot to bear but I know you enjoyed most of it).

Thank you for all you've done for me personally and professionally. I will be stopping by your blog and checking out the new things you are doing. I will miss you dearly here. Keep in touch!

Yes Anne...so saddened to read this. I enjoyed your humor , friendliness, everything.

You were wonderful . Thanks with appreciation for everything .
