This may be a long shot, but in the spirit of de-cluttering and re-purposing I'd love to take off your hands barbie clothes in quantity, barbies in playing condition, or My Little Ponies. I have the type of 6 year old that would prefer 6 older barbies to dress up to one fancy brand new one for her upcoming birthday. She also loves My Little Ponies but can't stand the *new style* of the recent generation MLPs.
I'll be hitting up goodwill on the lookout for these things too, but hey, if you got em, I'll take em!!
I have fabric (lots of cotton prints, by the yard or fat nquarters) lace (by the bolt or trims) Quilt and Craft books, Quilt patterns still in the package, LOTS of aunt martha transfers still brand new, several drawers of Cotton DMC floss, brand new, LOTS of colors. I've got pretty much everything except painting or soap making supplies as far as crafting goes. If you have a favorite crafty hobby but don't know what you want I can put together really nice surprise packages too!
Also have women's plus size clothes in great condition (even gift quality stuff.)
So if you'd like to downsize some girl imagination toys, lets talk!
Edit: Also interested in children's books!! My special Mina in the Middle has been tearing through the family library ever since she mastered reading a couple months ago, she's into anything from Kindergarten reading and up to about 3rd/4th grade level can be enjoyed in our household.

Hi Jen
Do you want to wait until you are home and settled in?
I have learned that to have a good friend is the purest of all God's gifts, for it is a love that has no exchange of payment.

No problem Darlene, I've been incredibly busy too... we bought a new property through HUD, ran round did all the paperwork, now it's waiting and packing, except for the belated honeymoon I am leaving on tomorrow (4 days in Las Vegas)then when I return it's time to get the kids ready for back to school on August.

Hi Jen, I just came across a bag with barbies and little homade clothes in it at our cabin. Haven't looked at it yet much, but I will and if you want them then I would be happy to send them to you just for the shipping. One of them looked like it was bald from too many haircuts, poor thing, but maybe the others are in good condition and The clothes are sort of optional too. My girls weren't much into sewing or barbies either to speak of, LOL. The poor little barbies would probably appreciate some loving care. Just email me if you think you might be interested in some or all :). I'm sure you will want to take condition into consideration.

If I am not too late..I have my lil ponys !! how many or what colors do you want may also have some books and younger girls things. When is her birthday ??
I would be interested in stretch lace prefer white or beige but open to other colors and or ribbon for ribbon embroidery.
I taught my 10 yr old GD how to use the sewing machine this past weekend she can now change the bobbin and she loves using the different decorative stiches.When they are curious its time to teach, just like yours and reading they will pick it up fast if we lay out the tools!!

pieces of material cut to a certain size of 18 inches x 21 inches. Anyway they call material that size a fat quarter. I am not sure why but I know that much. It is a little bit of help but maybe someone can tell us both how come it comes out that way.

Do you have any interest in Barbie ornaments? I used to collect them and have quite a few that I was just going to donate to Goodwill.

Hi Jen,
Well I would like those transfers I mentioned above and how about $3.00 of floss, do you have turquoise and bright yellow, I live those colors and normal nature colors, and I will wait and see what you got for fat quarters and then see what else I can send you besides the three Barbies I already told you about.
Let me know. Take care and have a good Saturday.

Darlene, you can pretty much name your "price". To give you an idea of the "value" I usually sell transfers and fat quarters for 1$ each when I sell, and the floss like 10 for $1 The transfers and floss are easy to lay hands on but I'll dig out my quarters so I can email you some photos!

Hi Darlene!
Lets see, the fat quarters I've got are "heirloom weight" cotton prints. I have holiday stuff, season stuff, florals...The dmc thread is for embroidery or cross stitch. You can browse all of the aunt martha's I have here: http://s1088.photobucket.com/albums/i336/duskybeauty/Aunt%20Marthas/?start=100

Hi Jen,
I have 3 fairly good barbies and some clothes I would trade, One is a barbie friend with dark hair. They all have out fits on and have the pretty Barbie face, not like the new one. There are 7 shorts and bottoms 5 tops and three outfits a windbreaker jacket for now let me look some more if you want to swap. I would be interested in the Aunt Martha transfers and the dmc threads. Is that for embroidery? What are your plus clothes like? What are your fat quarters like?
Well let me know and I will see if I have any more Barbie stuff.
thanks Darlene
