I did not buy anything. Don bought a few beads. But it did take discipline. <br /><br />He would not do it again, I probably would, but only after inviting special people to help me sort it out first. That worked well. <br />NancyNancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05025141996936933302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6575160302983217980.post-63927816729171798492010-07-14T13:30:37.780-04:002010-07-14T13:30:37.780-04:00Glad you made something off the sale...the thought...Glad you made something off the sale...the thought of carting my stuff and still bringing much of it back, plus the temptation to buy from others had me staying home last week.Gracehttp://www.redbarn-studios.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6575160302983217980.post-72902866359618187882010-07-13T13:35:18.253-04:002010-07-13T13:35:18.253-04:00Sherrie, thanks for the ideas.

Just like when cutting long hair short, lighter and freer.

Before the last move, I put all of my old quilt magazines that I hadn't looked at in years in a few boxes marked FREE and placed them at my guild's sign-in desk. They were gone to good homes before the meeting started. I also used freecycle.com to find good homes for fabric, patterns, etc. The local women's prison also gratefully accepts quilt fabric. It's a good feeling to give it away to those who need it. Hope this helps.Sherrie Spanglerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16439380401594187156noreply@blogger.com
