speaking of magazines....what do you do with them?
#11
About every 3 - 4 months I ask my sister if she wants my magazines (non quilting)for her church group. They have many homebound members and it's nice for them to have some new magazines.
If she doesn't want them, I take them to the rest home up the road from me. They are always happy to get them for their residents and visitors....especially "manly" ones.
I cut off our name/address label and stack them in a box.
In fact..mmmm looking at my stack it's about that time again.

[quote=frugalfabrics]I have given them to the quilt guild, freecycled them, PIF'd them. It gets easier to do once you start doing it. At first I didn't want to part with a single one of them, but then realized, they wouldn't be worth anything, if I could never find what I needed.
I was the same way, thinking I couldn't part with any of them, but was simply running out of room, and it seemed selfish to keep them when others might like to have them. When I removed a pattern I put a big X through that pattern in the index. I figured that was better than putting them in the trash.
