Purge

I'm going through my pattern collection (again) and getting rid of some more stuff, all modern patterns, most around size 12/14. If you're interested, email me for a viewing. I'd ask for a donation of a buck a pattern, if you don't mind. Nearly all of them are unusued. I also might be convinced to get rid of some of my bead collection, if you make a decent offer--I'm happy to take money or trade for craft supplies that I might actually use.

Shout-outs to a particular few folks: [livejournal.com profile] shrijani, I have some scrap silver for you to look at to see if you can use it for melting down, etc. Remind me to show you that on Monday. [livejournal.com profile] tattooedartgirl, I'll be mailing off your box of fabric and yarn next week. [livejournal.com profile] bestill, I would like to talk with you sometime about designing a hat pattern for this yarn I've got mouldering in my stash.

This winter I hope to use up some of the wools I've been hoarding. I want to make some sassy little sleeveless jumper dresses that I can wear either with a turtleneck underneath, or dressed up a bit with a jacket instead. If I line them, I can wear them with or without a top underneath and not be plagued by woolen scratchiness. Hurray for a new winter wardrobe! Hurray for sewing that does not involve RenFest garb! Hurray for whittling down my fabric stash, little by little!
