Please excuse the commercial.
Just letting y'all know, my next-door neighbor is having a garage sale next
Saturday (the 11th) and I am joining her (or leaving my stuff with her if
work has me in some other state, which I'm hoping against). Not much SCA
stuff anymore, but I did find pockets of trim (no, Ches, not the Ansteorran)
and cording in the crafts room, as well as some fabric chunks that might do
for garb. Plus a LOT of yarn, mostly the high-end wool and cotton and such,
including some cones. If I find the Stash O' Cotton Embroidery Floss that
will probably go in at a nickel each; I did find some silk floss but that
will be higher priced. Hopefully my quasi-oriental rugs will be returned
from the person who borrowed them for Warlord and those will be for sale.
Not sure what will be in the sale as I am continuing to clean, this being a
rare weekend at home for me. Non-SCA things include children's books and
toys, women's clothing (if you're my size, no snarking), embroidery and
needlework kits, sewing patterns (girls and ladies), decorated computer
papers, and at least one comforter (too warm for me), an alarm clock, some
cooking books and paperback fiction. Also quite likely one of my laptops,
complete with software and such, and maybe a desktop as well. Six computers
is getting crowded.
My neighbor is at 4013 Christopher Way in Plano, just off Coit north of
Legacy and south of Hedgcoxe, north side of the street. She said the sale
will run from 8:00am until 1:00pm-ish, and please do NOT bother her earlier!
I know she will have a washing machine, a love seat, some other furniture,
children's clothing and toys.
Arianne, this means we'll have to start sewing later on Saturday, or do it
on Sunday.
