    Wonder if that includes any sewing machines? The flower shop I use to work for is for sale. They want $300,000.00 for it. The bldg has been there since 1920 & really is falling apart. Has been on the market for 70 months. Nobody beating down the door for it. They are dreaming.

    Uhhh... so... after reading this post, I've been thinking... if all my colleagues and I decide to retire at the same time (in about 15 years, 'cause we're all about the same age)... and if we don't know what to do with all the fabric ... should I let everyone here know, and sell it off piecemeal?

    Is 15 years enough lead time? You know, for folks who like to plan ahead...?

    Mountain deb, What kind of fabric do you have? If you post pictures, you will be able to sell it on the Board. Eiltcoq.

    It is a matter of getting myself motivated to list and of course parting with all this fabric. Mostly Moda, Haufman, Kaufman, Blank and misc.. Most everything will be 40 to 60% off retail price. Sooooo stay tuned in for future postings.
