Oh man...I'd have to build a bigger house to hold all the new stash! Thats a great deal...one that I'd take in a heartbeat! Too bad my commute would be a little far... :lol:

Both of my daughters are excited because they know I cannot use 26 yards of fabric a month-so I will be sharing with them too.

The owner also told me that she would like for me to make shop samples sometimes. She will give me the fabric and the pattern, I will make the top, she will supply the batting and backing, send it out to be quilted, and when she is finished using it in the shop as a sample--I get to have it!! Isn't that a sweet deal????

I am really excited---one day a week for all that fabric. What more could a girl ask for? :lol: :lol:


What a lucky lady you are. Give my right arm for that kind of job, well not literally lol or I couldnīt sew at all.

Oh I want to be YOU one day a month! Is that too much to ask!?

Congrats Marcia! Couldn't happen to a better person!

I am soooo envious. The only downside I can think of is that you will have more fabric, and less time to do anything with it!
