Everyone has a different view and I have come to respect all of you. Thanks for your help in the past. Happy Daylight Saving Day!!!
I wish I lived close to you. I'd come to your yard sale. I agree with others that you shouldn't sell the fabrics that you love most, at least not all of any one of these. A half yard is good to keep if you are thinking of small projects but don't hesitate to keep several yards of your favorites.
