I did the same thing several years ago, gave away a large car trunkfull of fabric and then a few months later gave away a large tote of books, magazines and patterns. I didn't think I would ever sew again. I still feel a twinge every now and then when I think of all those patterns.But I know the lady I gave all the fabric to was blessed by it so it's all good. I think it is great that you can see when enough is enough, sometimes that is hard to do.
