Has asked me if I would like to work for her for a few hours now and again. I am SOOOO happy. I retired earlier this year after working in the health service for many years and so it will be so nice to get "back out there" again.
She hopes to get larger premises in the future and wants a few people who can cover for her when she does teaching, workshops or quilt shows. It is my first day next Tuesday and am really looking forward to it !!
She has also asked me if I will sew some blocks up for a bom she wants to launch in the shop. I cannot believe it and am really thrilled she has asked me.

Exciting! I'd love to do that...but would spend all my money there.

This sounds like a dream come true! Enjoy!!!!

Sounds like a blast to me!! have a wonderful time.

Sounds like fun!

Hope it works out well for both of you.

Congrats you will probably have a lot of fun.

What a great opportunity for you. I'd love to do that, too. Only problem would be is that I would spend all the money I make on fabric!

Ask for an employee discount! Hehehe

Sounds like fun

Wow, aren't you lucky!!! What a fun job to have!!!

Oh Dotty, what a great job! I am so envious! Enjoy yourself but take an empty purse LOL :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

The best of both worlds:)

Congrats! Now that's what I call a DREAM job! :)

Quilter Heaven.

I'm thrilled for you! :-) :-) :-)

Do you think you'll ever get to bring home a check? I think I would spend all of mine right there and never get to put a penny into the bank. :lol: :lol: :lol::

too much fun! How much do you think it will cost you? ;-)

that is an exciting venture

oh goody!!! sounds like fun and a little extra cash too!!

That sounds like so much fun! I secretly (I guess not so secretly anymore!) want to take over one of the LQS's when the owner retires. Enjoy it!

Congratulations. What a nice opportunity.

Ditto here on both parts.

Sounds like an adventure, enjoy it!

Sounds like the perfect job!

Congratulations!!!!! I have some friends who work in our LQS, and the money they make keeps them in fabric but does not put food on the table. That would be heaven to me!!

Now that is something I would like to do when I retire in 6 years. And a litle teaching, of course....just to stimulate the shop's economy!

congratulations, what a fun job!

Honestly I'm jealous ! I too am retired and want/need to get back out there but just haven't found the spot yet. I applied at the local Hobby Lobby and apparently they have decided to hire someone else. Years back when I was big into cross stitching I worked for a friend that had a cross stitch shop and it was awesome...she could only afford to pay me in supplies....oh, throw me in the briar patch !!!!

Wow, how lucky to fall into a "dream job"!!! Congratulations...just make sure to try to bring home the actual paycheck once in a while instead of using the employee discount lol.

How perfect! A few hours to get you out of the house. You get to do something you like. You get a little extra spending cash, and you can inspire others with your samples. Enjoy!!!

Dreams do come true!

Sounds fabulous. Have a wonderful time "working".

Sound like someones dream has come true. Congrats! Have fun!

Sounds just what would be nice for you. :thumbup:

You will be in "quilt heaven there"!

What a fun job...I bet you will recycle your paychecks there *L* crafty_linda_b

So Happy for you. sound like a dream job to me.

Exciting. So Happy for you.

That is wonderful! I am so glad for you.

Love to be in your shoes!

Me too! It would be like ME paying THEM for me to work there... ha ha ha
