you can offer them here to quilters who would appreciate the (gift) of your throw-aways- or you can donate them locally- school art departments are always in need of supplies- scout troops, 4-H groups, the senior center, local quilt guild, even some convelescent homes have residents with no money who love to sew and would love them. just don't throw them away---there are so many people who have need-and would put them to great use.
