Congratulations! Must feel like you've won the lottery. A job & quilting. As the saying goes "if you get paid for doing something you love, you've made it". Well you've made it so once again congratulations, I'm very happy for you.

Congratulations!! Now---try not to spend everything you make at the store. :lol: IT happened to me when I taught sewing lessons at Hancock.

Good for you!! Hope all works out well.
I'm sure there are many out there that will appreciate some instructions.

Congrats what a neat way to get a job. Maybe we should all start carrying around smaples of our quilting when we visit our favorite quilting haunts... :lol: :lol: :lol:

since it was a craft store I figured it couldn't hurt.

Congrats! Now that is a wonderful job. Have fun.

Jennifer22206 08-05-2011 04:49 PM

Congrats!

Patti Mahoney 08-06-2011 02:02 AM

Terrific...I'm so glad for you. It almost seems like getting paid to have fun! I have a very stressful job, I'm a nurse. Sure I make the money but at times, the stress isn't worth the pay. It's getting worse all the time. I'd love to have a job where I could go to work AND have fun. So I say 'Horray' for you. Congratulations! ! !

sosewbusy 08-06-2011 09:34 AM

Allright! Life works in mysterious ways.

rexie 08-07-2011 04:26 PM

That would be a fun job to have. Have a great time with it.

tms 08-08-2011 07:33 PM

Congrats, way to go, and God bless you!

jdavis 08-12-2011 03:58 AM

Congratulations on the new job! Did you post pictures of these snoopy items for us to see?

TootieAnn 08-12-2011 05:57 AM

Congratulations! I know you will enjoy your new job!

Doesn't get much better than working at a craft store so kudos to you. When you start work, thank your lucky stars they don't sell fabric.....cuz I just know you would have to feed your addiction....ha ha! Best of Luck!
