It's been shipped but I haven't gotten it yet. I want to get the ruler as well as the mat....but hey...$20 was all I could afford atm. :P

I recently joined one of the local freecycle.com
I offered a box of decorative painting books, they were gone the first day:)

I will have to remember to request at some time. Right I have to keep in mind that I may have sell and don't want to add anything I may have to pack.

Good going! i gave away a kenmore sewing machine on freecycle, and other items. I moderate our cities freecycle board.giving and getting items for free is a great way to keep it out of the landfills!
