My brother and sister-in-law (who has dementia due to uncontrolled diabetes) just dropped off her fabrics for me.
There are two big tubs of silks, cottons, polyester, suedes and I don't know what all! Three bolts of upholstry fabric including one that's suede, a bag of ribbon and beads and six tubes of different colored plastic "rings/circles." Some of the fabric is vintage.
My mind is going a hundred miles a minute thinking of all the projects I can use them in!
All she asked in return is a wall hanging made with beige and red materials.
I can do that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have two friends that give me their scapes for my string charity quilts. Last time they were in 40 gallon bags....my goodness they will keep me busy for a year with all the free fabric.

I am sorry about their misfortune with the dementia and all, but glad the fabric got a new home! Have fun with it

Sorry to hear about your sister-in-law's dementia. It's nice she is able to decide what to do with her fabric. Post a photo of the wall hanging when you have completed it.
