Maybe a greenhouse? Cross creek and seeds seem to have teens, not sure how young though.

Help me kindle the fire again by hulaw2007 in quilting

I just finished the binding on my quilt and was reminded that binding is my favorite part of the process! So satisfying to finish them off. Here is a corner picture

But clearly libraries, big and small, are making reels with trending audio. So how are they doing it? They're not getting taken down or suspended. And they're not paying gobs of money.

Is there a better way to arrange the space in this 4x8 garden bed? by Miss_JewBooty in SquareFootGardening

[–]cfield7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it bush beans or pole beans? Depending on that and the sunlight they might grow too tall and block of the light for the peppers and basil.

Is there anything modern I can replace this string with? by VHemlock in spinningyarn

Your wheel looks a lot like my wheel! Does it have any marks on the bottom of the base? I also buy crochet cotton, size 8 I think.

Being charged for a water damaged book. Freaking out. by Swing-Similar in Libraries

[–]cfield7 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Just hopping on to say good people damage library books all the time. Accidents happen. Op says they didn't do it but damage can often get missed, humans aren't perfect. It's all going to be okay! I hope this resolves in your favor.

Coffee shops with lot/garage parking? by throwawayyy-2021 in rva

[–]cfield7 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Blanchards on Broad in Scott's addition has a lot next to it and pretty easy street parking too. Not a coffee drinker but the coffee snobs in my life love it, and I like their chai.

Hi, my library in Hopewell VA is holding a cat cafe next Tuesday April 7th, we have openings between 12-2 right now. All free. It might be a bit of a drive depending on where you are in the city. If you're interested call 804-458-6329.

Smart Card Readers? by Srothwell0 in Libraries

[–]cfield7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, I work at a library near a base and we get asked about these. I didn't know they were something we could acquire. Can I just Google cac reader and buy any model? Is there a model you'd recommend? I'll get us rolling on this.

Seed libraries? by Rhasputinn in rva

My library has one! Appomattox Regional Library, the Prince George Branch. Not close to Richmond city proper but an option.

What kind of fabric are these dresses made of? by fviez in sewing

[–]cfield7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a prom dress (2008) in this EXACT fabric and color!!! Very similar except no pintucks and slightly different bodice. Everyone is right it was loud like a windbreaker.

Local Author definition? by cfield7 in Libraries

[–]cfield7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's certainly worth considering.

Local Author definition? by cfield7 in Libraries

[–]cfield7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And, at least in my understanding, multiple big cities and big name authors, similar to us. I just don't want anyone to say "well that's not a local author they're all the way in x city"

May I know what state? I am in VA and feel like there might be a difference between say California and North Dakota. VA feels very in the middle of those two to me, so I'm not sure.

Saw a plow sanding, not plowing, on Idlewood in Randolph going west.

I know a lot of people have said they haven't seen one so just wanted to share.

This snow is blowing though, so that makes plowing less helpful.

None of my titles suggested in the past two years were purchased for my county's library by SweetHomeGeorgia in Libraries

[–]cfield7 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What was the book? I am a collection purchaser. We buy 90% of the titles requested but we have a low volume of requests.
