I've got to get rid of alot of quilt magazines.
Any suggestion on what to do with them?

You can sell them here or on ebay or give them to your local library so they can sell them for funds for their operating account. Lots of options. Have fun.

you could list them here ( with regular status )
you could donate them to a quilt guild
you could donate them to a ladies group.
you could donate them to young girls learning to sew
list them on craiglist
or if all else fails you could toss them

Make a copy of the patterns you want to save and then donate the rest to a local guild.

I've thought about all that.
Not going to throw away.

I even have years of threads.

Since you cant sell yet (regular status) you can PIF them here for postage cost....

I recently decided to get rid of old magazines. I put a free ad in the local newspaper, and they were gone in a minute. I tried to donate them to the local senior citizen group, but the co-ordinator of the group said she was "too busy" to give them away. I thought that senior ladies would love to have them since they are pretty expensive to buy, and a lot of seniors are living on a fixed budget. Turns out the ladies who took the magazines were on the young side (also are living on a fixed budget) so I was happy to have them go to good homes.
