All but the polyester blend fabrics, they went to the trash.
Congratulations on completing five of them. I know it is not easy to finish other's UFOs.
A friend gave me a box full of polyester double knit 6 inch squares. No one else wanted them. I made seven lap quilts with the squares. They are all spoken for by various homeless shelters and food pantries. Yes, food pantries give out quilts, too, if they have them when there is a need.
Polyester fabric is not evil. It actually lasts longer than cotton. Another friend and I repaired and retied a quilt of polyester that had been around for years and years. Her brother loved it.
