the bricks & mortar home of:
silk & salvage    |    the 12x12 challenge at TDS    |    sue fox quilts

Saturday April 20, 11am-3pm

THREE important things to know about tomorrow’s Giant Tag Sale at TDS: 

1)  Payment may be made using Cash, Check or Credit Card. 
2)  Bring your own BAGS!! (standard grocery sacks are good)
3)  Tell Your Friends!
 

PLEASE NOTE:

This is a *Sliding Scale* Fundraiser, meaning: You choose the price according to what you can afford. This way, people with lower or fixed incomes can access items that people with higher incomes can pay more for. We trust people to be honest and share the resources ... not just gobble everything up at the lowest possible price point. 
 

• We will run it like an estate sale, meaning we will limit the number of shoppers at a time.
• Sign the wait-list in the lobby, so people can go in order of their arrival (like getting a table at that busy restaurant).
• You will enter through our front door, circulate through the action area, select all your goodies, then exit through the Cash-out room. 
• Pricing will be indicated by ZONES, by color stickers and by signs on the walls. 
• There will be 4 zones of materials: (1) General fabrics (bagged by you & sliding scale priced); (2) Silk sheers plus silk & wool roving (sliding scale priced by the pound, weighed by an Apron-Wearing Shop Gal); (3) Sliding scale priced materials, tools, books; (4) Fixed Price equipment and collectibles.
• Prices will drop at 1 pm, and again at 2 pm.  
• Much will be put out onto the free table in the lobby, which will be cleared by 4 pm. 

Our Apron-Wearing Shop Gals will be standing by to assist you with, well, most everything! 

I look forward to seeing you on Saturday and sharing my 40+ year collection of some pretty good art-making materials with you! (And I’ll be curious to learn what you do with it in the years to come!)

Big Love!
