I have posted this on my Facebook page. I am the director of the rainbow springs artist coop in Dunnellon. We are currently looking for a weaver to display and sell their work. If anyone is interested please let me know. Thanks
Would anyone be interested in several years of Spin Off magazines? Free!
We are downsizing and moving to High Springs.
Thank you,
Vanessa Grimmett
Thanks, but I’m in the same boat and trying to decrease such things. I appreciate the offer.
The Friends of the Library used to have a booksale 2-3 times a year. You might check to see if they would take such periodicals.

Are you currently meeting?
I am a spinner (and teacher) and a knitter.
I live in Anthony, just south of Gainesville.
May I join your group?
Hi Sherry: yes, we are meeting. I will send your email info to our secretary so she can add you to the email list. Also, I will share your email with our Treasurer., She can contact you with the info to become a member (just a $20 & a nice picture of you:-)

Hi there, do you know of anyone who can repair a crocheted, cotton sweater. It’s vintage and very beautiful. I purchased it at Lord & Taylor 40 years ago and the ends are frayed.
