Hey there gang!

So, recently, I landed a job as a manager at a Hancock Fabrics and, as such, I get a primo look at the fabric before it comes out (or goes away, for that matter). Recently, we did a big fleece overhaul and I found this gem of a fabric! A fleece blanket panel of Jack Sparrow from Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides! Of course, I can’t just let something like that go (and besides, I get a killer discount), so I grabbed it, and a back panel and made a swell little throw blanket!

Then I had an idea! Hows about I auction it off! :3 Lord knows, I don’t need any more blankets in the house, and I think that there are some more rabid PotC fans out there than me. Hahah!

So, here it is! In all of it’s glory! MaryScribbles! Show them what they can win!!!!!

The blanket is a Glacier (or Blizzard) fleece (i.e. not AntiPill). The front has Jack Sparrow on a flame background with red and black tie-fringe. The back is solid black. The blanket is 35 inches wide and 45 inches long (not including fringe). A PERFECT size for a kid, or an adult lap blanket. :) This blanket was made BY ME. MaryScribbles can attest. I made it while we watched anime. Hahah!

CHRISTMAS IS COMING UP AND THIS WOULD BE A PERFECT GIFT FOR ANY POTC FAN!!!!!

All standard DPF auction rules apply. But here are some specifics:
Only bids on this thread are allowed, no PM bids.
No cash bids.
If you want to help someone else bid, please contact them and bid through them. So that things stay tidy. :3
HAVE FUN!!! This is a fun hobby. :3


I know this is just a blanket, so I’m not expecting much, but I figure a pin or two is worth a quick and easy Christmas present! So, I’ll take what I can get. :) I’m just hoping this goes to a great home that will love it just as much as I do. :3

Anywho, for the sake of it, here are my wants/don’t wants:

Hyper-Specific Wants: (I know I very likely won't get these, but it's worth mentioning...)
Aladdin PoDM – Featuring the Magic Carpet Ride.
Sword in the Stone pins from my Grail Banner – Especially 72146 and 46508
Aladdin pins featuring the Magic Carpet Ride – Especially 39145


General Wants:
Sword in the Stone pins (mostly Merlin)
PoDMs (particularly Aladdin, Mulan, and BatB) (again, SUPER unlikely)
Pins from my Banners
Scrooge McDuck
Robin Hood
Pin-Tiquites / Masterpiece
Aladdin Pins featuring the Carpet and/or Prince Ali

Also interested in:
Jafar / Aladdin general
Scar
Maleficent
Ursula
Disney Store Europe
Good traders
Stitch


Do Not Want: (unless it's on my wants)
Hidden Mickey
Princesses (except Jasmine from the above)
Fab 5
Scrappers/Counterfeits


Also, I have a thing for “Specific Moment in Time†pins. Pins that feature a very specific moment in the films (such as the “Matchmaker on Fire†or "Jasmine in the Sand Timer" from my banner).

Pins do no need to be from these lists to be bid. I’d also be tickled pink with other awesome traders! :3


This auction will end at 11:59pm on Tuesday, October 22nd Eastern Standard Time (WDW time). I will do my absolute best to keep things updated. There will be a leader board posted whenever there is a change! But I will try and keep it up to date. But above all, HAVE FUN!


Good luck, everyone! ^0^

PS!!!! ALLERGY WARNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE READ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mary and I have two cats and it is inevitable that some cat dander has gotten on this. Please be aware of this. One cat is very short haired, but the other is long haired. Just something to keep in mind.
