I will start by saying I volunteer here. This is a very unique store ! It is a thrift store without furniture, clothing, kitchen ware, etc. We just carry yarns, fabric, some art and craft materials, patterns and books. We also have vintage lace and handwork. Our profits benefit the Sebastopol Senior Center. One of our goals is to keep the store well organized and to present the merchandise in the nicest way we can. You will find spinning wheels, raw wool, quilting fabrics and tools, sewing equipment and lots of books! People from all over the Bay Area come here to seek treasures! We have many estate contributions and give receipts for tax purposes if requested. We have an amazing supply of buttons, threads, laces, ribbons and even a «free» bin!

My review is based on my experience DONATING not shopping. I called the store twice before loading my car full of fabric and sewing/crafting supplies. I was told«yes, we take this, and yes, we take that» to every question I asked so I scheduled an appointment for my donation. Never once was I told«We don’t take scraps» because my question would have been«What constitutes scraps for your purposes?». Unfortunately my donation time was during a very hot part of the day but I was unprepared for the crankiness i encountered upon arrival. Two people came out to my car and seemed very u pleased about the amount of bags(even though I forewarned them when I made the appointment). Unfortunately I pulled a muscle in my right arm and was unable to left anything requiring both hands. When I apologized for my injury the man looked at me and said«Aaaaauuuuf course» because I needed help. I apologizes but did as much caring as I could physically manage. They eagerly took the 2 boxes of quilting pattern and sewing books. They eagerly took the large quilting hoops and directed one of the staff to «put a $ 20 sticker on These!» Then they started picking apart the bags of fabric and they only took a few select pieces. They said over and over«We don’t take scraps». Now to be fair, they do have limited space, but to be fair to me they rejected anything that had a piece cut out of it, some small(ok I get that) but also some half yards or MORE. I was left with 6 yards of linen, single yards of other various garment fabric(clean, current, quality), and lots of home dec. In the end they took 6 of the 13 bags I brought. He then looked at me and said«Sorry, I don’t want this and Goodwill won’t take it, but feel free to use the dumpster at the end of the lot. If anybody gives you a bad time just tell them John from Legacy said it was ok». Not even a thank you! I left there feeling sorry for burdening them with my donations! I drove down to the dumpster and threw in 2 bags of stabilizer scraps — usable for embroidery hoops, I just have too much. Then a lady stuck her head out of the McDonalds drive threw window and screamed her head off at me for using their dumpster. I tried to explain what John had said and it just made her yell louder so I left. I drove I to the Goodwill donation center and asked if they took fabric. They said SURE and offered to unload the remaining bags. The only reason I offer Legacy 1star is because I support what they are doing for the community. I won’t go back nor will I subject any of my friends to the rudeness I encountered so I will recommend my friends donate elsewhere. Maybe it was the heat… but…
