My aunt died unexpectedly in October. She lived in Pennsylvania. My uncle came to Indiana to be with the family at Christmas. He loaded his vehicle as full as he could and told us to take what we wanted. He insisted we take everything because he would rather we have it than the GW or the dump.
He did sell her machines and some of her fabric.
I felt like such a ghoul. But I understood what he was doing. So, I "helped" him out.
My husband knows if I died unexpectedly to first let my DILs have what they want. I taught them both to sew and helped them get machines. Then he is to call my sisters and my aunt. They will take care of it all for him.

a guareenteed way to preserve your love of quilting would be to leave your supplies to a local senior center so others will be able to learn your craft and create their own. senior centers also make gifts for homeless and hospitalized citizens.

One of my grand daughters informed me that when I expire (she informed me that was a nicer way of saying it) she plans on getting all of my machines, fabrics, quilts she wants it all including the house to hold everything! Me I am not going to worry about it but enjoy teaching the children to sew and sharing my love of creating with them.

You can will your goods to anyone or any organization you wish to: perhaps a local school for the sewing machines, or a Sewing Guild. Quilts and home projects can go to a cherished friend or relative. Once you start thinking about people you know,you will quickly decide who gets what.
