    I got a phone call from the owner of the quilt shop where I live & she wants me to work for her starting this Monday using her long arm!!!! Can I tell everyone how excited I am? Well, I'm VERY excited. Just what I've been wanting to do.

    Oh you lucky girl! Many years ago I worked part time at Montgomery Ward in the fabirc dept. I used to make all my clothes as I am very short. I always spent my whole check on fabric. So don't so what I did, unless you just can't help yourself!!

    Just remember.... It's for fun, it's not a job. Hate to see you get burned out working on others quilts.

    Btw: have I told you how jealous I am?!?!???

    Congratulations! Will you be able to stand the temptation? If not... will you at least get a discount on your purchases?
