Yippee!!
 
I have hung two of my quilts at the store I work at and they have both sold within a week of each other. I can't believe it. Now that I am working two jobs I have no time to quilt more!!

Katie 12-06-2011 02:02 AM

I know exactly what you mean about not having time to quilt. I also work 2 jobs and sewing at all is near impossible. I'm so glad I no longer have children at home as I have to keep my things set as I leave them so I can just come back in and pick up where I left off. I have a sewing studio that is not yet set up and boxes of fabric that still have not been unpacked so for the time being my machine is set up on a desk in my kitchen so when I walk by I sew for a little while before I go to sleep and sometimes when I first wake up. I've been doing this for 2 years but I sure hope it will not have to go on much longer. I love this board so much but don't get to check this out much either

dglvr 12-06-2011 02:11 AM

Awesome. Love the quilt in your avatar. :)

BuzzinBumble 12-06-2011 06:40 AM

That's terrific! So nice to know your work is appreciated! Good luck in your 2 jobs! :shock:

MrsM 12-07-2011 05:09 AM

Katie I am glad there is someone else out there who can't find that much time to quilt. I just need to find a balance. There are days that I am so tired from working I just can't sew. But I am going to try and budget my time better. I wish you the best.
"Thank you" to all of you out there for your supportive comments! You're the best!

SunlitenSmiles 12-07-2011 07:30 AM

Don't worry you will find time to quilt, even if it is early in the morning or late at night...would be great if you could adjust your work scheduals (sp?) to have a day to yourself in the middle of the week, your creative day !!!

Kim Bohannon 12-07-2011 07:31 AM

Snooks 12-07-2011 12:00 PM

MrsM, you don't have 2 job you have THREE. Way to go.

Cottontop 12-07-2011 03:34 PM

Wonderful. Shows how good you really are!

P. S. How did you arrive at a price. I never know how to judge that and I had cost accounting in college!
