    Now that is the type of job I could do. Or need to do. I like that idea.

    It is nice to know someone else who has a "dream job". Do you still have time to quilt for yourself with all you are doing?

    Oh, Nellie--I think you are going to have a LONG wait. I do not see myself getting tired of this job any time soon. But, I will definitely recommend you as my replacement if I ever quit. :lol:

If I didn't have those other annoying responsibilities like cleaning the house, babysitting grandkids (although I love them to death!) cooking, laundry. Well, you all get the picture, That fabric would be gone each month and sefish me wouldn'd need to worry about sharing the fabric, but I would give my quilts away when I finished. Isn't that why we quilt?
    If I had enough time that I COULD make 2 queen size quilts a month I would be in Heaven---but life has a way of taking over and if I make ONE quilt a month I consider myself doing well. So, I will just have to share my fortune with my daughters. And believe me, they are already drooling!!!

    What a great job, no stress, nice folks and fabric to touch. Who could ask for more. My daughter worked for Hancock Fabrics years ago and she made a
    lot of clothes for display in the store and then got to keep them.
