Sad news. I did not know she was terminally ill. My wife used to watch her and she doesn’t even sew much. She just always thought it was interesting to watch Nancy sew so effortlessly.

Thank you for this sad news. I suspect Nancy should receive much credit for keeping home-sewing alive as a vocation or hobby for millions, into the next generation or two.

I knew of her, but never watched he show.

All my sewing skill was learned in Home Ec. class, My aunt or self study.
