Comments on: Day 86: Recycling rags, or why I don’t give up http://www.darxyanne.com/2010/01/day-86-recycling-rags-or-why-i-dont-give-up/ Oh that there was a tidy little phrase that could sum up everything I want to say to the world Mon, 28 Jun 2010 20:26:55 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Darcy http://www.darxyanne.com/2010/01/day-86-recycling-rags-or-why-i-dont-give-up/comment-page-1/#comment-323 Darcy Tue, 16 Feb 2010 13:47:36 +0000 http://www.darxyanne.com/?p=1600#comment-323 Rachel! That is awesome!! I am so happy that you found a place to take your rags. Thank you for starting off my day with a big lift to my heart! Oh, and Grace, I keep forgetting to tell you that I have a pair of pinking shears you are welcome to come over and use. You can come over and use my sewing machine, too, if you want to sew a hem on those handkerchiefs. Hooray for textile reuse! :) Rachel! That is awesome!!

It's too late to call to find out more, but I'm so glad you mentioned Goodwill so that I thought to check out what I can do here. Perhaps I can now offload some rags too! You rock.

This is great to know, Darcy. Maybe you should write a book or something about "How to live lightly on the earth." You've got my head percolating on many levels! As for rags, I think we might slice up one of our sheets that we don't use anymore (a spot here, a spot there) and make them into handkerchiefs! Maybe I should invest in a pair of pinking shears?!
