That is wonderful !!!

It's a little like t he commercial (Progresso Soup I think)
"I did it - I got back into my skinny jeans" - he doesn't react at all,
so she says "is there a girl I can talk to?"

Congratulations, so happy for you! I love that commercial, I can relate to that.

Congratulations! I had the same experience a couple of weeks ago and it's quite a feeling...I had disbelief at first but so excited! I hope you have continued success!

I am doing the HAPPY, HAPPY DANCE for you. The high you get from selling something that YOU have made, is like no other. So ENJOY it!!!! Don't let you DH reaction or lack of change this for you. He did his best, but just does not understand at all. But all of us on the QB do, so remember you can always share with us.

gemladi 02-13-2012 06:21 AM

I am happy for you, it is exciting when someone else likes you work well enough to pay money for it!

tdvxh 02-13-2012 06:28 AM

From someone that wants to sell and have only sold a few pieces...WAY TO GO GIRL! Best luck in the future with many many more sales.

Beautiful quilt and great job! Did you advertise anywhere? Was it a custom quilt? Did you paid what it is truly worth?...time, effort, costs, more time and effort?

JoanneS 02-13-2012 08:47 AM

That's wonderful! Yes, we all are so happy to hear when one of us sells something, and I, for one, start thinking about selling one of mine, too! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

sewnbug 02-13-2012 10:12 AM

So happy for you. I haven't sold anything quilted yet, but have sold lots of wool mittens and it definitely is a high.

JUNEC 02-13-2012 10:34 AM

WOW - How awesome - Congrats.

mosquitosewgirl 02-13-2012 11:03 AM

That is so very cool! Congratulations!

By the way...as you start selling them, keep pictures of each one...someday you will be very glad you did. As my mother, who was a prolific artist, got older she wished that she had kept pictures of some of her earlier works.

caspharm 02-13-2012 11:06 AM

Congratulations!!

glenda5253 02-13-2012 12:58 PM
