It sure is hard to get anything done around here. Vacuuming has fallin’ way to the bottom of the list, but guess what after a load of discussion and number crunching has finally moved up?
In case you can’t read my writing which I often can’t, it says, “Quit Job.” No, it’s not because money is just rolling in on all fronts, but I can’t get done what needs to get done to make my creative dreams happen, so something had to go for me to stand independent and happy.
I have faith that good things will happen with hard work and blah blah blah, insert any cliche here.
Wish me luck. I’ve got a self-imposed deadline of a year.
Happy Monday, Tuesday to ya!
Congratulations!!!!!! I wish you all the luck in the world
Wow you go clever lady – look forward to seeing your dreams coming true!
Support and respect from this quarter. Good for you. Here’s to following dreams and having faith in one’s abilities.
The very best of luck!
So proud of you! I know good things are coming your way.

Woo hoo!! Very exciting. Sometimes we need to take these risks that are scary, but it opens up space for wonderful things to happen. The next year is going to be fabulous.

Good luck woman! I’ve dreamt of quiting my job and it’s not because I don’t like it. . I’d just rather be doing something I’d love. American Dream right? But then I have this crazy student loans. . mortgage. . bills. . .just shit that’s holding me back. So I’m stuck dreaming. .
I wish you the best and can’t wait to see more from you in the creative front.
Good for you! Best wishes on your new adventure!
Good luck…….we will be here to catch you!
What good fortune to be able to pursue your dreams! Best of luck, and saying that, knowing that it will entail lots of hard work, but hopefully work that you will love and that will be richly rewarding, in more than just financial ways.
Congrats! That’s a dream of mine too 🙂
Good for you! Honouring that creative passion is so important and will lead to wonderful things. Your work is beautiful.
It’s a scary but wonderful decision. I’m so excited for you!
Katie,
You are a winner and you are rapidly approaching your goal!
Hugs, Joan

Good luck! I just quit my job for exactly the same reason. I was only working very part time, but it is a case of focus as well as time. There are so many great opportunities just waiting for us 🙂
I’ll miss seeing you there! best wishes and happy creativity!
Ooooh! That is just so exciting – a dream come true for sure (how about that cliche! lol)!!! Best wishes!!!
Good call! I hope this means Ill be seeing more of your unemployed ass!! You Rock! You’ve got this girl!
oh that is so awesome!!! I really wish I could quit my job. blah. need insurance though I guess. Awesome that you’ve got a good plan in place though!
Good call! I hope this means I’ll be seeing more of your unemployed ass! You rock! You’ve got this girl!
Oh, you can do it! Goooooo, Katie!
I just decided the other day that come January 1 I am going to 20 hours per week. For me, this is the only way to do it, a little at a time. Congratulations!
That’s how I started. Good luck! xo

A big decision, but a brave one – good for you. I don’t think you’ll regret it one bit.
CONGRATS!!!! I quit my job a year ago and it’s been tough yet VERY REWARDING! You made the right decision! Cheers!
Blessings to ya’. With your talent, and drive to create, I’m certain your “job” is more of a hinderance than a help. Can you start a website (with a link from here) listing some of your many quilts for sale? It would be wonderful. I’ve seen your work on Pinterest, but frankly, Pinterest isn’t accessible to everyone.
Just offering a few random thoughts. And Best Wishes. PS: I love how you display your quilts on the clothesline.
Totally jealous! Best of luck!
Congratulations and good luck to you!! I look forward to seeing what endeavors you launch/enrich with your decision!
So exciting!! I can’t wait to see what you’ll do full steam ahead.
Yay, good luck with it!
I had the same item on my to-do list, for about 3 years! Just took the leap (with a little nudge called layoffs and severance), and I can’t recommend it enough. You can do it!
Congratulations!
Si puedes imaginarlo es porque es posible . Diría Richard Bach..Puede que te cueste trabajo pero es posible.Cariños.
Congratulations!!!
I am a regular lurker on your blog but I just have to speak up and say congratulations on making a decision and I wish you all the best in making this dream come too – it’s a good one! Can’t wait to see your courage and your dreams play out!

best of luck to your too! xo

Congratulations Katie! I did that just over a year ago and have not regretted a moment of it. I wish you all the luck and good fortune in the world!
Thanks Dani! Maybe I’ll look to you for some pointers!
very brave! I did the same thing a few months back, and haven’t missed it a bit! I love that I now have time to do all the things I never had time for before. Go for it!
You have a wonderful sense of aspiration; I wish I did! All the best of luck to you 🙂
Woohoo! I have faith that you will succeed in your creative ventures 🙂 You already have done so much! Happy for you! 🙂
now I’ll have time for that sew-in date we keep putting off. xo
