Later he'll offer soap making and scrapbooking. Still, just an option.

I'm not a regular on either ebay or sewbids, but it's nice to look when I'm interested from time to time... I bought lots of tools, rulers, rotaries for my 4 daughters and my supplies, at fraction of what it would cost me locally...more money for fabrics, classes, and quilt retreats....in this day and age, could be needed for more bills again, ugh.
I can't even imagine losing $8, nothing to show for it! And if you lose that several times!!! I don't care how much I might save on the auction I do win, I don't pay anyting for nothing.
