No Longer Accepting Sewing Stuff At Our Goodwill :(
It's organization time and so I took a lot of sewing tools and fabric that I no longer wanted to our local Goodwill. Sadly, they said that they are no longer accepting sewing goods. I don't know if this applies to all Goodwills, or just ours. The items were still in good condition, clean and very usable. I don't belong to a guild, and the closest guild is over an hour drive away, so I guess I'll just throw them away. Our local fabric store is also closing. I guess no one around here is sewing anymore. So sad!

or carry them to a local thrift shop... or list them on eBay. I hate to see useful stuff just tossed. Maybe that's why I've got such a huge stash and tons of sewing things I've kept for years because I may need that someday. I really have to get rid of some stuff... maybe tomorrow!!

I donate nothing to Good Will, haven't for years. They are picky about everything and are not what they once were. I take all our donations to Salvation Army or local church thrift shops. I don't shop GW either, expensive and find prices of some things more than you can buy them for new, such as $1 soup mugs from Dollar General. GW was asking $2. Unbelievable.
