The Amazing Quilter

I recently received an e-mail with a link to a YouTube video – I know, you get them all the time too. This was different though. The subject line stated ‘Absolutely incredible. I feel like a slacker next to her’. I wondered why this particular video would make anyone feel that way. After all, most of the videos are depictions of animals that are just too, too cute, or people who are purposely performing death defying acts or well, to be honest, some of them are just plain stupid and I wonder why they are getting so many views. Then again, a lot of the stupid ones involve death defying acts and people love horror. Curiosity is the main reason we watch these videos, they’re sent from friends so it must be worth the time to look at it, right? Yeah, sometimes that’s not true but that’s exactly what got the best of me when I read the subject line on this video.

I clicked on the link and viewed the video. This one is most definitely worth the view.

WOW! There really is no easy way to explain this inspiring, phenomenally amazing woman.
\Her name is Diane Rose. After viewing the video I went to her website, took down the phone number and because no one wants to be called in the wee hours of the morning, I called her the next day. Being polite is important.

Our 40 minute conversation was so uplifting. I felt wonderful after the call. She lifted ME.

Diane is genuine and she truly is the real deal. She is loving, kind, caring, positive, funny, talented, knowledgeable, filled with integrity, optimistic and she is blind.

She is a quilter and as I said, there is no way to do her justice with the written word.

Please view this video and pass it along to anyone and everyone you know. Her message needs to be heard – we all have gifts and she most definitely is using hers to the fullest.

I will be interviewing Diane on my radio show in the next few months – she’s going to England in April and her schedule is very full. As soon as I confirm a date, I’ll let you know so you can tune in to hear Diane, who I am quite sure you will agree, is an inspiration for us all.
