    Default Honest, I took a shower

    and used deodorant, but apparently I must still stink or something. Today was the first daya of my quilting group at church. Noone showed up. Noone came two weeks ago to the blanket making group either. I have advertised, spoken on-on-one, put it in the small groups catalog, everything i can think of, and still noone has come.

    Aww, I'm sorry Missy

    Where did you advertise? Would it be possible to have people register so it gives them more of a reason to go when they said they would, and so you can stay home if no one can make it?

    I am so sorry to hear this. I know how hard you are trying and it is a great thing to do too. Just don't give up on it. Maybe open it up to the community, not just the church group.

    Maybe it's just that people are not as creative as you? or maybe they are just lazy

    Don't give up yet,if it wasn't so far, I would have come because I can't sew for toffee

    I'm so sorry Missy! Do you get promises, but then nada? Is there a better time for a gathering maybe? I hope someone will show up soon!

    It's not you Missy, who knows what these women are doing?!
    Please, please don't give up or blame yourself. If it doesn't work out at the church check with a craft store and see if they could use your expertese. You've got talent lady and it's too bad these ladies aren't tapping into it. Don't give up!!!!

    I would walk in the door with Karen and Rodmick. I'm sorry they're not showing up. I know your classes would be awesome.

    Awe, I'm sorry. I would try one more time and if no one shows up then just close it. Maybe then some ladies will come to you. Dont take it personally hon.
