I did end up moving more fabric than I wanted and I since I haven't been sewing, the stacks haven't been going down. I have a few categories I can reduce... is easier on me to work that way than make decisions on every single piece of fabric whether to stay or go.

I've asked one of the group to come help me sort and put options together and have a large tote ready to be filled and bring to group next week or the week after I'll probably have to add some project sheets/patterns to the fabric selection

10 years ago I had a room full of fabric -- my goal is to be happy with a large closet full. Still working on that!
Sorry to hear that your eye issues aren’t any better. Remember if you have any fabric or ufo that you don’t need, please keep me in mind. I bought a long arm and a presser, so that pretty much emptied my budget for buying new fabric. As always I will pay shipping. Take care and don’t throw in the towel yet. When there is a will there is a way.
