I'd feel so bad about that that I just wouldn't enjoy myself. Maybe next time though :lol: Ya'll have fun and you HAVE to post pics!!!

Patti-I am sorry you will not be able to make it to the show this year. But--I just might go next year too--and we would have another chance to meet. I am meeting up with several friends there and am spending two nights. I have not been to a quilt show in a year and a half and I am really excited about this one. Hope it is a good show.

Marcia, I'm sooo jealous of you, but really hope you have a great time! Maybe next year..I know my grandmother would love it if we could go over. She just had a house full and loved every second, so I know she'd love it if we could visit. I haven't seen her for a long time.. :( although we talk all the time. She sent me my 1st box of fabric to get me started :roll: ....yup...another enabler, and I love her for it! :D :D

Patti---I will think of you while I am at the show. Wish you AND your grandmother could be there too. I will be sure to let you know all about it when I get home.

Ohhhh, yeahhhhhhhhhh!! I'm thinking that's the best job in the world, one day a week, sewing, AND fabrics for pay. How does you SS come out of that? Will you have to declare it on your taxes?

Wouldn't matter at all would it? Fabric...........ohhhhhh

Whoo hoo! You can't beat that! Congrats on the new job.

Do you get to choose your fabric you want?

Congratulations Marcia, what a great job! I hope the owner will let you post pics of the shop when your work is hanging in there - I bet your inspiration will increase her sales no end! Then you can ask for a raise to 12 yards a day!
