I am one of the moderators for the Waterford Michigan Freecycle. Fabrics and fabric scraps become available all the time. I have a very generous stash that I have acquired over the years and it has grown beyond imagination with the help of freecycle. The purpose is to keep things out of landfills and I have found a large number of quilters that use freecycle. I find I will pass fabrics onto another quilter this way easily knowing that in a week or so someone else is going to be offering fabrics. I just hope that I can get a chance at them quickly. I offered a very large bag of scraps this morning and they were spoken for within minutes and picked up within an hour. To make it even better the woman who I gave the fabrics to has a longarm and is going to let me come over and watch her do some of her magic. I agree that is is an excellent way to expand your fabric needs on a tight budget.
