Gina, known for her blog "Threads of a Tatting Goddess" (I always loved that name!) passed away on Monday. Her blog was an inspiration and she was an endless source of information for all of us. I enjoyed reading her blog almost daily and she was so faithful in her posting and sharing that I felt like I knew her even though we never met. She always took time to comment and encourage other bloggers as well - me included. For those of you in the tatting world who knew her personally, my heart goes out to each of you. If I can feel such a loss for someone I only knew through the blogging universe, I can only imaging the pain and heartache you all must be going though today.
Gina, you will be sorely missed by many.
