    I read all the answers and than tho't gee sounds like me. I have three working sewing machines right now, I have so many scissors that my daughters counted them once to see what Mom was doing {Poor thing, she's lost it} I have patterns, books etc, I don't know how many rotary cutters and the thread should last until I'm 120 at least in other words I am ready for any and all needs today. So Happy Sewing.

    Oh you are in the best state for quartz! i would love to come out there and dig! I do have some decent pieces of quartz form ark.
    I should figure out where that is. We have alot of bluffs and boulders around here, so many that it's distracting to look at as I drive down the road! heehee! I don't use a cell phone but I look at rocks and for deer instead!

    I have acquired 6 sewing machines just in the last few months. Have tons of dolls some very old and tons of red hats, colored rocks from arkansas, bunches of buttons. I have about 3 sheds full of collectibles like action figures and barbies and such. But I am getting sick of all that stuff and intend too try too move a lot of it this spring and summer. Health is getting so bad that I can't run the dust bunnies out the door much less try too sell anything on ebay and other places.

    I collect lots of different items. It would be hard to say which would come second. Maybe books and magazines. But rulers are way up there too. After those would be scissors and then various tools, some of which I never even use! 8-)

    Look up quartz mines or quartz digs in Ark, there are all kinds of them, for a set fee you can dig through what they call mine trailings. One day I WILL do it!

    Books, Scissors, Needles! It kind of becomes scary cause once you start quilting, you can always say 'I bet I could use that to make ..." ;)

    I might be interested in buying quilting goods and patterns. Are they in good condition? Please contact me at [email protected], if that is allowed.
