Buy a piece of history!

So I've decided to sell the t-shirt comforter that I've been working on for, well, half of forever. I pieced the top 7 years ago when I was newly married, and I pieced the back just last month. Finishing it seems like an eternity, even though I know it's really not that long.

But right now I need to focus on doing everything possible to bring in money. We have a lot of work we want to do on the house, and even doing it on the cheap there's still a lot of fund raising involved. When you live paycheck to paycheck, every little thing counts.

So I decided to sell the comforter on Ebay. I never know what to charge for these things, and since this particular one is also sentimental, I just couldn't settle on what I thought was a reasonable price. (50? 75? 250? I don't know!)

I thought, since my lovely neighbors always insist they'd be willing to pay more, I'd test that theory.

The starting bid is $15, what I need to recoup the cost of the materials and listing it.

I'm comfortable letting it go for that if it means it goes to someone I like. (Mainly, dear reader, YOU!)

So, admire.

And then go bid, if you'd like!

I keep trying to figure out if I recognize any of the teeshirts. Love the wicked bunny!

The bunny is from a Morella's Forest tee. There are a few you may know- a Brandston shirt I wore all the time, the "Poop on Satan" t-shirt, a green stripey thing I wore every other day until it got a hole in the arm pit. I'm betting you'd know a lot of them!

I would buy this quilt, but I make my own quilts. And, we have tons of other blankets in our house. Different types; light for summer, etc. We have so many blankets and crocheted afghans that I ran out of storage places for them. I had to put a bunch of blankets in space bags and store them in the basement.
