#because $15 is already an insultingly low price that only covers the cost of materials because I have gotten so many fabrics for free | Explore Tumblr posts and blogs

Today I learned that while I can now walk around the neighborhood to look at yard sales that does not mean I should, because I will spend the afternoon with super low blood pressure I mean, I did figure that out after walking like half a block, but then I cam home and set up my own mini yard sale of just plushies, baby blankets, and quilts, and apparently "sitting outside in the sun for an hour" is too much for me physically at the moment? Definitely a learning experience lol I did sell a few plushies, a pair of baby booties, and a quilt! And the quilt went to someone super excited about it! It was her favorite color (it matched both her nail polish and her ring)

#the person behind the yarn #I did not sell the quilt for what I should have #but it's been sitting around for like three years #and she was so excited!#I did refuse to sell a baby quilt to someone else for less than $15 though #because $15 is already an insultingly low price that only covers the cost of materials because I have gotten so many fabrics for free #also side note: people were very surprised I made the plushies!#like consistently people assumed I made the blankets #but the plushies they were like wait you MADE those???#I thought plushie making was the more common form of sewing #it's possible my assumption of the relative frequency of plushies vs quilting is skewed #by how many plushie making blogs I follow lol
