I am just so tired of having all this bulk around that I cannot manage, and will never do anything with. I was thinking of just taking these boxes to the local half-way house run thrift store, but wanted y'alls input before I do anything. Any ideas?
Donating the boxes of fabrics to the half-way house's thrift store is a great idea. I have brought fabrics to a "garage sale" run by people who support a charitable diner. I've also donated yarn and fabrics to a church group that sew for nursing homes.
