Sobering event: a guild member passed away and her husband asked for help in selling the stash with benefits going to 3 of his wife's favorite charities. Stash included patterns, books, tools, and of course, fabric. Fabric priced at $2/yard, was laid out on tables (backing, panels, reproduction fabrics, novelty prints, children's prints, etc) shoppers given a sheet and guild members manned the tables to keep track of what was taken from the tables. People walked out with armloads of stuff and $6000 was raised and there were still some items left for donation to Goodwill. If "she who dies with the most fabric wins" she was in the running!
