Handmade sage patchwork quilt
Cotton quilt in sage, cream, and clay. Machine wash gentle. Made on my dining table over the winter.

Softer than it looks. Helen's stitching is even and strong.

Tap stars. A note is optional unless you give 1 or 2 stars — then please say why.
How the handshake works
Step 1
Both people are verified
A Verified Neighbor has confirmed their name and phone. Look for the badge before you talk money.
Step 2
Money sits in Paddle Hold
We keep the payment until you both say the handshake is done. Card, Google Pay, or Shop. No gift cards. No wires.
Step 3
Meet at a Safe Spot
Library lobby, precinct lot, community center — lit, public, and often staffed.
Step 4
Tap Handshake
Inspect the item, then both tap. Money releases. No-shows lose standing and coins.
How a Trade works
Step 1
Both people are verified
A Trade only starts when both neighbors have a Verified badge.
Step 2
Values are compared
We show what similar things sell for. If one item is worth more, the difference goes into Paddle Hold — never cash in a parking lot.
Step 3
Even-up sits in Paddle Hold
If the swap is uneven, we hold the difference until you both tap. If it is even, nothing extra moves.
Step 4
Meet at a Safe Spot
Bring both items. Look them over in public. Do not swap in a driveway at night.
Step 5
Tap We swapped
If both items match, you both tap. The even-up releases. No-shows lose standing, same as a handshake.
