It would be a crime not to own one.

Ebay Auction - Wallhanging

I put up the Moon footprint wallhanging on Ebay.    25% goes to Wounded Warrior.   Get this cool wallhanging and help our servicepeople get on with their lives.



Bid, comment here.   Enjoy.  

The diamond table runner is also still up for auction.  That one benefits Polaris Project.

Remember every sale benefits a charity.

First Payments

It has begun.    I got paid by Inbox Dollars (banner ad below, referrals help).    It was a number not easily divisible by 4, so I divided by 3.   2/3 to student loan, 1/3 to charity.    The charity chosen was Greater Good's Girl's Right to Opportunity Worldwide.   Right now donations are matched (hint, hint).   It's not much, but it's a start.

Just FYI, the student loan ticker will also show the regular monthly payments so there won't be an exact 75-25 ratio between charity and student loan payoff.  But rest assured, I will keep my word that any extra payments I make on my student loans will have a corresponding charity donation.

Housekeeping

I didn't like how the pictures were all jumbled up on the photo gallery.   So rather than figure out how to arrange them better, I just made a separate page for each type of item.   Now you can view a representative picture of the item before placing your order.   The price is listed also so you can easily order.    I still have to figure out how to move the paypal buttons to each page as well on as on the home page.   For now, view the item, then come back to the home page and order.

No More Excuses -- the Round2It

Today, a dear friend said she would do something when she got "around to it."   So I made her a round2it.   We all have those things we will do when we get a round2it.   Well, for the low, low price of $1, you do can have a roundit.   No more excuses.





Free shipping up to 5.   Any more than 5 and the post office will wonder what I am up to.   Do you need 5 or more?   Have you looked at your 2 Do list lately?   Do you have a friend with a long 2Do list?   The more round2its you have, the more you get done.   Order yours today.  Not all round2its will be the same, color and size may vary, but they all get the job done.

More Legal Quilts

So I have a Facebook page and I am on pinterest (kinda forget to post there).   I also sell some items on EBay.   But Legal Quilts needs more.  

You see I have plans.   Big plans.   Plans for new lawyers and pro bono work.   But I can't implement these plans until I pay off my own student loans.  Boy do I have student loans.   I started Legal Quilts as a way to pay them off.   This is just another way to promote Legal Quilts.

On this blog, you will here more about my quilting.   See pictures of quilts in progress.   And off to the side, see my progress on paying off my student loans.  

But I have not forgotten those who need a little help.    You notice there is a second ticker called Charity Donations.   That ticker will show how much is donated to charity by legal quilts.   What charities?   Oh there are so many.   But I will probably focus on some specific areas:   Cancer (I have lost 3 family members to cancer), literacy (duh I am way overeducated), support for our troops and domestic violence.   And I won't forget my dear Lions.    25% of all proceeds from Legal Quilts and this blog will go to charity.   The rest goes to student loan payoff.  

You notice that there is an Amazon ad on the bottom there.  I hope to add adsense in time and maybe an affiliate program.   Same division of income - 25% to charity, 75% to student loan.   If this goes right, that would be over $50,000 to charity by the time I pay off my student loans.  

How does this work?   Simple, on the Photo Gallery page (hope it works), you can see representative items.   On the main page, you click on the general category of item you would like and place your order through paypal.   When ordering make any specific requests you want.   I can do most quilt patterns (complicated patterns take longer).   I also don't do applique.   But colors, size, etc.   Just let me know.  

Don't want to use Paypal?   No problem, use the contact form to place your order and we can discuss payment.

As always, feel free to start a conversation in the comments.
