What a great opportunity, getting paid to have fun. Congrattulations on your new job. You're one lucky lady. Enjoy.

Thanks everyone -- I must admit I am SO excited and cannot believe I am so lucky. I do hope it works out and I will let you know how I get on. I doubt very much that I will bring any wages home !!!!!!!!!!!

I got the same offer from my friend who owns a quilt shop. She said she would pay in dollars or fabric. Guess which one I chose??? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Heavenly job !!!!

Sounds like fun. Only thing with me doing something like that is I would be paying to work there.

Great going. Just what I would love to do.

I couldn't have said it better! Have fun!

Congratulations, and have fun! How lucky you are!

I feel like wearing a sign each time I go into a quilt shop...Will Work for Fabric!!!

I keep telling my local Quilt Shop (Sisters) that I will work for fabric a few days a week. No takers yet!!

I see that no where do you mention money. Glad to see that as you probably won't take much home in cash with all those wonderful, beautiful fabrics around. :)
Have fun, and go ahead, spend the whole salary on fabric. Think of it as free fabric. Who can complain?

Add my name to the list of those who are extremely happy for you to work where it will be play with people you enjoy.

Sound like the perfect part time job. You will have the BEST of both worlds. :thumbup:

I always wanted to do that--even volunteer to work there for free. To work and have fun--how much better can life get? Great friend to ask you.

Now that is what I call THE perfect retirement! Have fun.

I am jealous, what fun. Perfect for someone who has just retired. I know I miss seeing people on a daily basis. I can't tell you how excited I am that my husband is gone this weekend and I have until tomorrow night by myself in my sewing cave. I almost paid the friend who took him away!

Congrats and I hope you have great fun.

How fun is that!!! You have definately discovered the perfect job!!! :D

Congratulations, have fun!!!

Lucky you!

What fun! enjoy

I'm sure that's what a lot of employees do

What a dream job! I wouldn't have any problem jumping out of bed to go to work if I worked in such a creative place! How wonderful!

Dream job is right. Have fun and tell us all about it.

I got an email recently that a fabric company was looking for a salesperson for part of Oregon. If I had lived in the sales territory I might have applied. That would be another dream job.

Your going to love it:)

That sounds so great. I miss working in the fabric department. We got to see and buy the fabric when it first came in. Got some really good buys.

Congratulations on your retirement and new job-what a fabulous friend to have!

LUCKY YOU. HAVE FUN AND DID YOU TELL HER TO JUST NOT BOTHER TO MAKE YOUR CHECK OUT EACH WEEK. LOLOLOL

Sounds wonderful!

Hope it does not turn into a JOB and you feel inundated.

Lucky duck, sounds great. Congratulations.

Ahh the dream job :). Congrats on your new job, enjoy and have fun!

You're lucky to have each other! Congrats on the new job. Enjoy!

WOW, Lucky you. What fun to be back in the lime light again. Congratulations

You will have a wonderful time and come home with all the new stuff that comes into the shop - no money, tho :-)

Have fun! Oh, to work at something that is so fun!!

Sounds like fun have a great time helping out.

Congratulations. This sounds like a wonderful opportunity for you. However, be careful that you don't end up owing her money at the end of the month! Ha..Ha..

You are so fortunate to be offered a job doing something you would enjoy. Just be sure you don't spend all of your income on your passion for fabrics, LOL.

Congratulations. I'm sure you'll find much enjoyment there. I got to work in a quilt for 2 years before it closed it's doors and it was such fun. So enjoy, and come share your experiences with us.

Congratulations! Enjoy "getting back out there."

Wonderful! Enjoy every minute.
