I've had several quilters families give me their mother's stash to send to the right groups. I worked in a quilt shop for 16 years, so have lots of contacts. I give fabric and notions to a humanitarian group where I work. We use many types of fabrics -- knits for baby gowns and hats; flannel for receiving blankets, burps and bibs; cottons for quilts of all sizes (we need the batting as well); knits for children's shirts; clothing fabrics for pants, skirts and dresses. I know someone who does Ryan's Case for Smiles (pillowcases). I can donate to theater costuming. I know someone who uses wedding dresses and similar fabrics to make bereavement quilts for infants. What I can't give away, we have a woman who sells on Ebay to raise money to buy materials for the humanitarian center. I hope you are able to get the help you need to down-size.
