It has been a while. Life has been crazy here, and recently my hubby broke his ankle..he is laid up at home. In order to keep my stress level down I am doing some handsewing. My machines are in need of repair so I can only sew by hand. I am working on mini quilts.. I am looking to trade one of my handwoven wool shawls for quilting supplies.. fabric- fat quarters, scraps, muslin, yardage etc.. trims-ribbon, rickrack, embroidery floss, buttons etc..., batting..quilting magazines for inspiration, embroidery patterns, hoops etc...
I have a shawl on the loom I have to finish first so we can negotiate for a while. You can see my shawls on my website http://woolieacres.net
Thanks for considering- it is going to be a long haul. We are broke (he lost 75% of his income last month) and then this. So I barter for things I need or want.
Blessings, Debra

I am interested. I am a longtime quilter so I would need to know what you like, interests, etc are. I would also like to know what the color(s) are in the shawl. If it gets to me let me know.

Wow Debra! Your shawls are beautiful! I absolutely love the one pictured on the bike! I too would love one of these, but it looks like there are a lot of gals who beat me to it! If you have enough to meet the queue ahead of me and still more to barter please let me know as I would certainly love to barter with you. I too have lots of fabric, scraps, quilting magazines. |

I have two shoe boxes stuffed with vintage quilt squares, if you thought that would be worth a trade. My `14 year old daughter would love a shawl. We are shepherdesses and we also are in a living history program where we dress in "period" clothes, etc. We are in the frontier/trapper period. It would be awesome!
I should say that the boxes have pieces, some are not squares, they are triangles.
Let me know!

I'd love to also send you some fabric for one of your shawls, what colors do you like, what magazines do you like? I have a whole sewing room full of old magazins from years past, my mom was an avid collector and has since then gotten my Great Aunt Hazel's stash too.

You do beautiful work and I would love one of your shawls to keep me warm as I knit or do other hand work. I have lots of fabric and trim I can send just let me know how much and what colors you'd like or not want. Hope things turn around for you soon.
