I've been saving up for a while and since it was my birthday I attended a short and sweet 3:00 in the afternoon auction just across the river
My knees were literally shaking with more than a dozen bidders crammed into a very small garage this afternoon, but I ended up with the highest bid and snagged 3 full stacks (each stack contained four,
3-drawer "cubes")of gorgeous floss in the original DMC cupboards-
Whoo whooo!
Now where to put them?
