Do you know Robin, of a little sewing, and also an active poster on Stitcher's Guild? I really like Robin and have followed her for a long time. When I took that fabric road trip a year ago last April with Peggy, we visited A Fabric Place (aka Michael's) in Baltimore. I knew that Robin worked nearby, so I arranged that we meet for lunch and a subsequent run to the renowned fabric store. I later blogged about it.
Well, Robin has been sitting on some exciting news which she has finally announced. Someone at Vogue Pattern Magazine was following her blog, and offered her a job as an editor!! You can read about it on her blog, which is going on hiatus for the time being.
She started her new position today, and is now living in a cozy little New York apartment. I am just busting with pride. One of our own (and by that, I mean a hobby blogger) has infiltrated the corporate sewing world in the very best way. I can now say I know an editor at Vogue Pattern magazine. Did I mention that I'm Busting.With.Pride???
You go, girl! I can't wait to see what you will be up to and to see your smiling mug peeking out from the pages of Vogue Pattern mag! I will miss your blog, but I'm sure we'll be hearing from you!
So TOTALLY exciting :)
ReplyDeleteI so agree, isn't this just the most exciting news!
ReplyDeleteIt's exciting! Hurrah for Robin!
ReplyDeleteThis is so amazing! Let's get together a bunch before I move!
ReplyDeleteIt's such exciting news! Yay Robin!
ReplyDeleteExtremely cool!
ReplyDeleteWhat an adventure for her, I am so excited on her behalf.
ReplyDeleteI saw this post too on Robin's blog, as its been one I've followed. I haven't had the privilege of meeting Robin, except in blogland, but am also excited by the news. Such a fabulous story!
ReplyDeleteFantastic for Robin
ReplyDeleteIsn't it exciting! Her news brought tears to my eyes.
ReplyDeleteI am so excited for her but jealous at the same time :) I will miss her blog too.
ReplyDeleteI've met Robin a couple of times in NYC once for dinner and once for lunch and fabric shopping. We also had daughters teaching in Korea at the same time, obviously lots in common! I am so thrilled for her and just a little envious as well.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy for her! I know she will be a positive influence at Vogue!
ReplyDeleteoh shams what a nice post! I was without internet for a week (not to mention a few other time consuming things happening).
ReplyDeleteBelieve me, the affection and respect are mutual !!
