I won't go into how glad I am to see it gone, suffice it to say I am looking forward to the New Year.
But before the end of last year I had the chance to visit the National Coverlet Museum in Bedford Pa. and get some pictures of the displays.
A Scottish coverlet
Jaquard Woven Coverlets
The amount of information and beauty of this museum is so wonderful. I could have spent a day just looking at all of the detail.
If you get a chance to go - Please do! It is more than worth the time.
Other notes - I have closed the fiber shop. After a year of considering what to do about it, I finally made the hard decision. While I love to spin, knit and dye things, I don't have the time to maintain a shop too. So it is closed.
At the moment, I am happy to knit and spin for myself. I promise to share more of the projects with everyone this year.
One of the things that has been keeping me busy, other than family, is working at SMart Resale LLC.
The chance to help recycle, reuse and keep things out of landfills is so important. This year we are hoping to grow the business even more. As the business grows, and we are working with not only used IT equipment, but with some wonderful vintage items.
This past year the business became a Microsoft registered refurbisher, and affiliated with a electronic recycler to securely recycle outdated and broken IT equipment.
The business not only works with large corporations, but individual persons. If you have something that is no longer of use to you - Please contact them to see if we can help you. One woman had some old toys she mentioned she wanted to throw out.
Instead of putting them in the trash, she brought them to SMart Resale. Each item was researched and the suggestion was made to see if we could sell them. That box which would have ended up in the trash instead gave the woman over 400 in cash. Talk about "Found Cash"!
Visit the website and keep us in mind if you have old laptops that are just becoming large paperweights.
Happy New Years all.
