I was so excited Sunday night, I could have peed my pants. Okay, that’s an exaggeration, but you know what I mean.
Sandie Vanosdall of The Sweetheart Tree called me! Me, little old me. Isn’t that crazy? I really enjoyed talking to her; she’s really a lovely person, very nice and easy to converse with. I am going to send her some samples of my work and then, hopefully, I will officially become one of her model stitchers. 😀 I can’t get over it, I am just SO excited. Her designs are the perfect size for me and it would be such a treat to work for one of my all time favorite designers ever. We were discussing payment and other specifics about model stitching for her and I asked if I could just be paid in stash, since any money she paid me would likely just be turned around and spent on her designs. 😆
I don’t want to get my hopes up too high until she sees my work and approves it, but since I’m not exactly new to model stitching or anything, I’m hoping that there won’t be any issues. She was happy to hear that I do hardanger work, so I guess that will help me get my foot in the door, as well. I can’t wait until Christmas is over and the postal system has cleared out a bit so that I can send my samples and see what she thinks!
It’s wonderful, I’ll cross my fingers for you!
Sounds great, congratulations Jenna!
And your opinion about payment sounds very reasonable to me. 🙂
wow, that’s so cool Jenna!
I have to admit, I’m totally jealous. I’m sure she’ll love your stitching, you have nothing to worry about!
WOw Jenna! You go girl! I’m so impressed – and HAPPY for you! I’m proud of you, my friend 😀
So cool Jenna! Wonderful!
And the payment system sounds great too… saves a step or two doesn’t it?
That is great!! I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you, too.
You SO rock, Jenna! I have my fingers and toes crossed for you!!!
I’d have been thrilled too! Good luck Jenna!
I’m so excited for you Jenna! Very cool!
Wow that’s so cool. I have my fingers crossed for you!
That is so cool! Congrats on the offer and I wish you luck 🙂
Oh wow cool, keeping my fingers crossed for you. I model stitch for a lady here in the UK, its great fun.
Hugs xxxxxx
Wow, congratulations! I am entirely impressed 🙂 I wish you luck!!
Congratulations! That’s great news. Sweetheart Tree is one of my favorite designers also! I’m soooo envious.
That is *awesome* Jenna. I think I would definitely have peed my pants 😀
WOOT! You get to stitch fantastic designs and you get more for doing so? I believe that is what is called a “win-win senario”. Yay, Jenna!
That’s is absolutely incredible! Congratulations!
Even better, the idea of getting paid in stash – because it is so true. I’m a tad jealous too – but so excited for you. 🙂
Congrats!
