I got a gig taking pictures of quilts for a quilting magazine and the deadline is brutal.
30 quilts in two weeks.
Praising God for an open door to contributing income, and praying fervently He provides the strength and diligence to get it done. And done in a way that I am still glorifying Him in my attitudes and actions. (Read: not biting everyones' heads off.)
So if you don't hear much from me for the next two weeks, just picture me sweating in my darkened room, steaming quilts and getting them "just so", then taking one picture after another.
And then doing it all over again.
And
Again.

Just 2 a day Darling, and 3 on 2 days. You'll manage. How did thee land such a gig?

Didn't want you to think "Jody" was a guy... :)
Hooray for you! You can do it! Can you tell us the name of the publication?
You exemplify the modern version of a Proverbs 31 woman. The ability to use your God given talents in a home business. You inspire me in many ways. As for doing this task, you can do it, the God who gave you the talent and this job has already given your the strength and diligence to do it. May I also say, give yourself grace. You are human, you are allowed your moments of frustration.
God bless,
Nadine

At least photography is something you enjoy AND are very good at doing! We'll wait patiently for your return. Congratulations and make sure that a little bit of the payment is used on something fun for everyone.
God is soooooo good! I will be praying for you.
You can do it! What a neat blessing the Lord has provided for you.
What a great opportunity for you!! You are an amazing woman..I have full confidence that you will be able to pull it all of while still glorifying him in all that you do :)
I LOVE quilts...can't wait to hear all about it...
Praying for you....
Love and Blessings, Jerelene
I think Matt's idea to spend some of that payment on needed equipment for future "gigs" is in order. Along with some chocolate. :)
Bonnie~ Matt's aunt works in advertising for all american crafts. She saw those pictures I did of my new nephew and asked if I would be willing to do some photography for the magazine. Then it was just a matter of selling myself to the editor. :-)
Tracy~ I am working for the conglomerate All American Crafts and some of my pictures will be showing up in magazines called Fabric Trends, The Quilter, and Quilting Showcase I believe.
