I just went through one closet in my sewing room to also downsize my stash, it was hard at first until I found a young woman who is a stay at home mom who wants to get into sewing and can not afford a lot. So I offered her some material and she said she would love anything I wanted to pass on to her. I felt so good , knowing how excited she was and how much fun she will have . My closet is almost empty and only the stuff I know I will use is in it. So maybe find someone like the friends daughter who may have some friends that also need material , and feel good about making a difference in someones life. Good luck and enjoy your journey.
