Okay, I had a room like this. It isn't lots better yet, but I'm finding if I get 2 of those priority mail boxes that cost 11.00 to mail and set them to the side of my chair, I have an easier time giving away stuff to people who need. I'm not good at selling so I give it away.

So far this year I have sent 15 surprise boxes to people who love to sew and quilt, but don't have money for fabric. I have also started including a few coordinating fabrics into my swaps. My stash is now manageable. I sent all my scraps to different quilters who like those leftovers.

Of course all the wonderful people who sent me fabric a couple of years ago, I'm using it too, but what you sent was already organized. I'm talking about the 3 moving boxes of fabric I started collecting and didn't use. Quilt kits I didn't make. I'm sharing in my plenty with people in need. It is more fun than tossing it. and it works for me.
