Joe's Mom -- your plan to give away is brilliant as it still reduces your stash and "finishes" the UFOs, just not in the way you originally thought it would. I watched a video yesterday on Quilted! Summit called "UFOs - Quilt it or Quit it?". I'd already quit one of my UFOs that I've taken out every few months to work on then put it back, knowing I'd never finish it. So yesterday I disassembled the contents in the bag, put back any pieces large enough to use and (horrors!) actually cut up the sub-units I'd made and put the scraps in my current dog bed. Never done that before but it felt good.
