Our guild had lots of donations that they displayed on tables and told the members to take what they wanted and leave a donation for the guild fund. There will be lots of charity quilts made from them.
I am glad you were the recipient and not me, but that is how I would choose to do it. Blessing of love and wealth to you.

From what I have been able to see in the boxes without taking anything out, cause I have no where to put it at that moment. There seems to be alot of fabrics that would be used to make blouses. And alot of fabrics for making like pant suits etc.

He would have told me that he did't want to contribute to my clutter and to my habit! :-)

I am thinking that if the donor was a long time sewer there is probably much double knit and polyester fabric there too so probably all can't be used for cotton quilts. Some folks still do make the double-knit quilts for homeless folks though.
