Are You Interested In A Job???


I have had a request to stitch a custom order for Teresa Wentzlers "Peacock Tapestry". Unfortunately I do not have the time to accomplish this in the time needed because I work a full time job. So, I thought I would post this opportunity to my blogging friends to see if anyone is interested in making some extra cash. The item needs to be completed by the end of March. (There may be a little flexibility in the deadline) If you are interested, please email me and let me know if you are interested.
((((EDITED))))
This is being revised to anyone who is interested and how long (appoximately) would you need to complete this? Also, how much money would you charge to complete this? I have told her how hard it would be to complete in such a short time and she is now "seeing the real picture".
I will relay your information on to her so she can review/make a decision on what is possible.
Thanks you guys!!!!

Goodness Jolene! By the end of March? That would have to be one smokin' stitcher ;o) Good luck finding someone.

Catherine said...

Wow! What a lot of work in that piece! I could use some extra money - who can't - but with three little ones and baseball season starting up soon, there is no way I could commit.

Good luck!

Jolene - Wow, that is a pretty tall order to stitch that piece by March. I've done a couple of her things before and they are definitely not for the faint hearted - I think it's all those color blends. I have a friend that is doing stitching for sale, I can ask her and see if she could do it, but again, that's a pretty tall order in that length of time.

Someone paid me $500 to stitch that for them! It took me a LONG time! I never could've finish this piece as fast as March! Now, if I were Nicole, maybe, but I ain't, lol!

OH MY! That would be impossible for me by March because I work full time too. Gosh, good luck at finding someone to do this by March.
But Andrea is right, Nicole probably could do it!!! She's a fast stitcher.
It's a beautiful piece.

Gosh! I would so love to take the opportunity to stitch for some cash, but I don't think I could get it done that fast. I do know that I have seen another blogger working on this design already over at Loretta's Stitching Blog. I posted this link to her comments to see if she may be interested.

Good Luck!

Loretta said...

Hi, I`m the Loretta Jules mentioned above. I have been working on my Peacock for over 10 years. The piece is beautiful and I love it but once it is done I can`t see myself ever stitching it again.
I think in order for somehow to stitch it there needs to be more flexibility in the completion time. Even if that was the only thing I was stitching I wouldn`t be able to do it in 2 months.

Wow, I would love to see someone finish the Peacock in 2 months. It's a massive design! Hopefully someone might be able to help your contact.

You would have to stitch day and night to finish that by March - would love to see if anyone could do it. Good luck in finding some to stitch it.

There is not enough money available for me to stitch that mongo design, not ever - no matter how long I got to do it.
