  Please help me save the Legacy!!!
      The Legacy is going through changes!
First the good news. In the coming months a total remodel of the store is scheduled. There is a temporary location but it is smaller than our little store. This is happening during the busiest season Oct-Dec. What were they thinking!!! On the bright side there will be new flooring and fresh paint.
Now the bad news.
  WE NEED SHERRY BACK
         She is no longer working at the Legacy and we want her back! What a valuable asset that we have lost! She set the tone and feel of the store. Many of our incredible donations have come in because of her. Personally she has changed my life. Many of the volunteers are begging to get her back. At last count 10 have resigned.There will not be enough volunteers to stay running. It is just not the same. Going in yesterday was a shock. All the character was gone. So much of it belonged to Sherry. The vintage aprons and quilts and framed historic lace,beautiful baby dresses and on and on. Even the dresser that holds our vintage linen is gone. She has been so generous to share them with us. Even the rugs her father made for her son and daughter were in the store.
     Bumble Button would not be in existence with out her influence.
So if you like my blog or use my blogs images  please post a comment!!!
 I will then take them into the Senior Center to show them how far Sherry's goodness reaches.
We were just at the point of selling the beautiful buttons,lace and trims on etsy or ebay. I really was trying to make them available to you all. I love my followers and think you should have a chance at the many unique treasures that come in. For all of you across the world. Now that is history if we cannot get her back. The same grumpy person that is responsible for her departure also has stalled the etsy / ebay project
One time a large donation came because of Sherry. The family just wanted their mothers quilt finished. Sherry did it. She has made up little starter sewing boxes for the little girls who come in. For free as a gift.
  Cathe Holden of  JSIM " Just Something I Made Shops "shops  here. I know that is name dropping and hope she does not mind but it is the truth.
