I have 'gifted' or 'paid forward' fabric to other quilters and have reaped wonderful surprises in return. I did ask the individuals in advance on what they wanted or they stated what they were looking for and we both was very happy. I cannot imagine using fabric I paid $11.00 a yard to use as a $5.00 mop. But to each his own, is what the old maid said that kissed a cow., or so my grandmother told me. Charities always need fabric, as local ports of charities do also....hospitals need children's quilts, hospice needs quilts to give to family members in time of a death in the family. You might make some new friends and feel good by helping others who are not blessed with as much as you are with fabrics. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and we all are unique and different.
