Prairie Eco-Thrifter

APRIL 3, 2013

Learning to sew takes time and equipment. A super short history of sewing. In many parts of the US, people learned to sew as part of their life skills – from parents or family or schools. Although Mom didn’t sew much (she did mend), she made sure I took Home Ec in high school. Clothing is cheap, sewing is not.

Do you love to sew/knit/crochet? Sell Unused Video Games. My husband loves video games but just doesn’t have time for them anymore. I shop at thrift stores frequently and I am always amazed at how much I see with store tags still on the product. My mom makes and sells Raggedy Ann & Andy dolls.
