Everything has been measured to the nearest useable piece, that measurement written on an index card and put in individual ziploc bags. I have three large boxes to take to the local thrift store early next week. I've also let go of a couple templates that I thought I just had to have years ago and never used. A couple (5) UFO quilt tops that I never did anything with, have gone into the box also. Maybe someone can complete one or two to give as presents for Christmas. Now thinking that I have time this weekend to put a binder together with downloaded patterns in plastic sleeves and give those away also. I did keep, numberous jelly rolls, layer cakes and charm packs and quilt backings. At least I know that the fabric colors in those coordinate wonderfully. I will still be making pillowcases and reader pillows each week to use up much of my larger pieces...keeping my toes in the water so to speak.
Do I feel "free"? Not until I hand those boxes to the thrift store in-take person and drive away will I feel that way. Sometimes you have to know when to say time to let go.
