    My LQS had their annual stash bash yesterday. You could bring in fabric that you don't want and they gave you a $1 coupon for every yard of fabric you turned in. Then they resold the fabric for $2 a yard. All proceeds go to the American Valor project. I think every store should pick up on this idea.
