Kids fabric, a new direction - what to do?
#21
If you are sick of looking at it, it is NOT going to inspire you. Advertise to swap with another quilter for the same amount of pounds of scrap fabrics that you would like to sew with. Be specific, so you get something you want. Both you and the other person can benefit from this, for just the cost of postage.

I have A LOT of iddie fabrics. I made 50 Kids quilts twin or bigger and donated them to a local hospital.
Love those big kiddie prints. Now i'm using them in NICU quilts. they can be small 15 x 15" uses up a lot of my fabs
Annaquilts under requests collects and distributes the NICU quilts. make a few of those. they are fun to do.

There are area quilds near me and one that used to sew for newborns, so there are definitely places I can donate to if I choose that route. I think tho I will wait until spring and to see if I really don't want to use them.
Thank you for all your advice!

Get rid of the fabric. Project Linus, church sewing groups, Quilts for Kids chapters, and many others love children's fabrics and will make good use of your gift. I am doing the same thing with a large amount of fabric I have too. I don't like it any more and I see no reason to keep,looking at it <grin>.
