Noreen and I

Sep 03, 2005 8 Replies

I am writing today to bring closure to this issue.



I have spoken with Noreen about the similarities between her shawl pattern and my own. With the latest update to her patterns page (at

) I now consider this matterCLOSED. I greatly appreciate the support from the knitting community, even from people I have never met. But I do respectfully ask that no further action be taken on my behalf.



Noreen is planning on helping with Katrina relief efforts in Mississippi, I am going to do what I can from here in Seattle, and I ask you all to follow your hearts and help as you can.



Best wishes, Emma Crew



Hi Emma,

Thank you so much for posting that the matter is closed. I hope the Noreen will be coming back to here soon. I am sending eight afghans to TX as I know they can use them.

Hugs,

Nora

To put my two cents in:

I did not expect that Noreen would respond in this way, regardless of the circumstances. I wish her luck in her Hurricane Katrina relief efforts, and I can see why so many people consider her such a dear friend.

I have known Noreen for a few years now and I knew that she would eventually get things sorted out when she could manage to. I am not surprized at all that she is helping out with the Hurricane Katrina relief efforts... that's who Noreen is. :o)

Glad that all of this other stuff is over and done with.

Peace! Gemini

Thanks Emma, I am certainly planning to do something in one shape of form. We will donate money through the Red Cross. The addresses posted here are also a help and I have down loaded them for refference. Thanks Nora and Noreen for this.

Thank you Katherine , for understanding that our friend is our friend, and that we all stay by our friends. May the best be with you too. mirjam

Emma,

I am happy that you and Noreen have sorted out your differences. Thank you for letting us know.

And I have, as well, respectfully requested those who were emailing and name-calling on MY behalf, to cease as well. Noreen

And, I would like to add that Kathryn's two cents is worth MUCH more than she thinks. Noreen
