Wonderful. I will be waiting for you to post pictures. I would think I was in heaven if I could get 65 yards of material all at once,

St Patty's Day has gone but today I definitely am green with envy!
I must admit I've never bought that much at one time...

Emma S 03-21-2011 07:24 AM

Can hardly wait to see the pictures! Have fun. I love batiks.

the lion 03-21-2011 07:42 AM

that's wonderful! can I work where you work so I can also get bonus?

pittsburgpam 03-21-2011 07:49 AM

I've been with my company for 17 years and they just started doing bonuses fairly recently, and then didn't for two years because of the economy.

I'm grateful to have a job let alone a bonus!

dilyn 03-21-2011 08:14 AM

Oh how wonderful! I am so jealous!

msariano 03-21-2011 08:21 AM

I love getting a bonus. Last year I asked them to purchase a gift certificate to my quilt shop and went shopping every other month. It was so much fun.!

malega 03-21-2011 08:27 AM

That must be very nice. please post pictures of the fabric.
congratulations on your bonuses, have lots of fun.

I think this would be a good time to start.

Doreen 03-21-2011 11:09 AM

congrats on your generous bonus, and the delightful way you spent it!!! enjoy!!! gina

D'Marie 03-21-2011 04:08 PM

Congratulations on your bonus. Good to hear that you spent part of it on something you wanted.So many times we gals think we have to add every penny to family savings or pay a bill.I tell all the girls( in our family) when I give you a gift of money, that's for you, you spend it on something you want.I know extra money is had for the young ones, with families, to come by these days.Everyone likes a little something just for themselves.

MillieMoseley 03-21-2011 04:24 PM

sounds like you got a pretty good deal. I know you will enjoy all your new fabrics. Now you not only have to show us the fabric but how you have used it.

Feathers 03-21-2011 05:01 PM

Wow! Lucky you for the bonus and for the fabric and long arm those bonus' bought. YES! do post pictures.

gramadona 03-21-2011 05:32 PM

ordering all that fabric.
Can hardly wait to see it! :mrgreen:

Nettie Phillips 03-21-2011 05:35 PM

Good for you. Have fun with all of that when you get it.

Izaquilter 03-21-2011 06:10 PM

Great day! Better to buy it now before the price goes up, up, up! You should be set for awhile! Thank your boss for the bonus!

Annz 03-21-2011 06:11 PM

Wow lucky you. Do they have any openings were you work? I need a bonus.

Grandma Peg 03-21-2011 07:06 PM

Have fun with your new fabric.

Rann 03-21-2011 07:26 PM

Forget the bonus--I'd just like a cost of lining on my retirement and Social Security--none in several years now.

Lyncat 03-21-2011 08:29 PM

That's awesome!! I'm a teacher...no bonuses. We are lucky to get a paycheck these days.

Dotsie 03-21-2011 08:35 PM

More than half a kilometer, lots of work to come, enjoy! Wish I was there when opening the parcel.

The Quiet Quilter 03-21-2011 09:02 PM

I'm so happy for you. I can't
wait to see pictures!! You'll
keep busy now! Hugs, Sharon
