Swissvale Library Book and Bake Sale

One of my very favorite events of the year is the bi-annual Swissvale Library Book and Bake Sale. This event is sponsored by the Friends of the Carnegie Free Library of Swissvale and takes place every Spring and Fall.

Donna and I are members of the Friends of the Library and help with various events throughout the year to raise money for the library. 

The library is located at 1800 Monongahela Ave - Pittsburgh, PA 15218.

We sell our knitted items at the sale and donate a portion of our earnings to the library.

Veggie Kitchen Towels

Here are some of the items we will have for sale.

Pot Scrubbies

Coffee Kitchen Towels

Coasters

Here we go Penguins Here we go!

Swissvale artist Linda O’Toole also sells her paintings – here’s a sample of her work.

You can’t forget all the great books you will find at the sale as well as the awesome bake goods.

Here are the hours for the sale:

Thursday, April 25 – 4p – 8p

Friday, April 26 – 10a – 4p
