Do you have more fabric & notions than you know what to do with? Send fabric, zippers, thread, patterns, buttons, ribbon, etc. to #Lakota women on Pine Ridge Rez! Thx for helping me get the word out.

They are 3 hours round trip away from a store where they can buy fabric, plus they really can’t afford it but love to sew and quilt.

Flat rate boxes from the post office would be a good way to ship those!

Even just a few zippers or some bias tape in an envelope would be so helpful!

Another question - would they accept donations of sewing machines (with manuals)? I have at least two I don't use that I could ship out there, if they want them. They work, but I was doing heavy-duty stuff, and one of the machines didn't cut it with denim and heavier fabric.

It may not be for a couple of weeks - but I've been looking for a local charity to take this kind of stuff, and none of them seem to want it. I hate that it's all sitting here, unused and probably never to be used, I'd rather think somebody who needed it would get good out of it.
