congrats! 8 weeks is a nice decent sized gig. most crew around here only work for 4 or 5 weeks, so 8 is great! (didn't mean to rhyme there) you'll be amazed at how fast that goes. i was hired on to do 22 week for feature once, which totally freaked me right out. but it went away after only 3 weeks of work. then the next year it came back, and i was hired on for even more weeks! but then it went away after 6.....if it comes back again this year, maybe i'll get 12 weeks out of it? if it comes back, though, which i doubt it ever will....
the red teacup print was my favourite fabric of the bunch you showed us earlier....
YAY! Thanks for your support Lucy! :) I really appreciate your input esepcially cos I know you know what it's like to have these crazy, intense, all-consuming jobs and then big scary blank patches of nothing inbetween! :)
I hope your 22 week feature comes back! Lots of jobs here seem to go away before they' ve even started... US jobs especially... I guess it's the distance thing... it's probably cheaper to shoot in Cananda actually at the moment, cos the US/AUS exchange rate is currently quite bad for the USA (good for Aussie ebayers though!).
anyway... will keep you posted on this job! I'm kinda scared! x
:) thanks! I feel so bad I didn't comment earlier and say congrats! I have been very neglectful of LJ... :( i'm sorry! Anyway please keep posting more pics of your lovely little one for us to admire! x
That is exciting about the series! "Professional friendmaking" is much nicer but, to be honest, everyone networks so frenetically here in Tokyo that I don't even think of it as a dubious concept anymore... it seems like all the English-speaking jobs turn up because of people you know. I love the red teacup fabric too - what are you going to use it for?

thanks Suzy! :) as for the fabric... oh... I have a very bad habit of buying fabric before I have any idea what it might get used for! That's why I have such a ridiculous fabric stash... but.. if you have any suggestions for the tea-cups I wanna know! Sometimes when fabric is super-gorgeous I become paralysed and don't feel I can make anything with it that would do it justice!
i'm tooo stupid i missed this post....i noticed now...>_< thank you so much for close up pic!! really lovely textile<3
and congratulations!! it may be a little hard till get used to work and people.(at least about myself,many new people makes me nervous...>_< ) but good luck<3
hee hee no problem. I love textiles too.... have you been to Nippori in Tokyo? SO MANY good textile shops there!
My new work is SO BUSY! watasha wa isogashi desu! (is that right?) The people are really nice though, so that's ok :) There is just SO MUCH TO DO! Thanks for your good luck wishes! xx
hey thankyou! :) yay for the teacup fabric! I have had so many nice comments on here ab out that fabric and I didn't even craft anything with it yet :) hee hee.
yes this new job is SO exciting... I feel like it might be just the beginning of a real upturn in my work/career (if you can call it that!). BUT I am working 12 hour days and haven't seen my boyfriend since I started! gotta get that balance right... xx
