Hi - new here and really love the site!  I'm clearing out lots of my Vintage Fabric Stash and would like some direction for selling here?  Amazing how much one can collect over the years, and as my mom and grandmother handed down their stashes, it didn't help - lol!!

I've been away for some time and my Antique collection has grown in size and category. Going through a Huge life change and I MUST LIQUIDATE ALL OF MY COLLECTIONS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
I am now as of this summer no longer raising my youngest son. Which means a HUGE CUT in my incoming income.
I am still on full Disability with my health declining. I'm wanting to load up and hit the Rd. And travel and learn how to have a lil fun and how to be happy with out raising a child full time, as I've done for the past 24yrs.
Freakin out big time and feeling completely lost.
PROMISE this is as personal as this again. Just wanted to update my profile goings on.
Thank you for reading.
On the serious note, I am looking for prices and buyers!!!
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about any items I've posted for sale!!!
Can't wait to get to know this community!!! Cause Antiquers RICK !!
Thanks, Kathy B.

This looks like the right place to say Hi, y'all :)

I have been away from the site for a long spell, concentrating on a new job and real life.  I am so happy to be back and to find y'all are all still going and blowing.  It's like jumping into a pool of antiquey talk and shared experience.
