I took mine and made packages of ten tied ribbon around them and sold them 10 for @2.00.. Sold everyone of them at my garage sale.

Local Quilt Guild. Even if you are not a member. Our Guild has a Boutique at our quilt show and we sell them there or at our semi annual quilt auction. We all clean out our quilt rooms and we sell auction style at a meeting. I love to pick up a stack of older quilt magazines. Fun Fun

I recently had stacks of them too that I couldn't give away. so I went through them, tore out any pattern that I thought I might make some day and put them in the recycling. I hated to as i spent money on them but they were taking up too much room. Now i don't subscribe to magazines anymore. I have one subscription and I get it digitally.

Consider donating them to various quilt guilds in your surrounding area or donate them to places like Good Will, Salvation Army, etc.

Can be donated to a school economic class that teaches sewing. I would love to have a couple of them myself if shipping was not so high.

[QUOTE=BellaBoo;4928837]I use to donate them to my guild's free table but it was always full of magazines. Now I donate them to a local nursing home. The ladies and even the men loved looking at the quilts. Everyone had a long remembered quilt story. The employees said they were the most looked at magazines.
Your experience was great. I would love to find those mags at my local Goodwill or half-price bk store, but I know how much such treats mean to my very senior friends.

This is what I vote for. If you can ship them at a good rate, you might post them here and see who would be interested in buying a FRB for the cost of the shipping - $11.00. Not a bad idea for a lot of magazine (30 to 38 can fit in a box). I'm selling mine on Amazon.com, but am also giving a lot of them away to my little quilt group here at the park so they can use them or sell them in their bazaar or whatever. Eventually, I'll have to donate them to a thrift store - probably Habitat for Humanity. I have a lot more than you do, but they are whittling down slowly.

Good luck, but don't throw them out! Other quilters can use them!

Put them in sets of 6 at a cheap price and let us know they are available for sale. You will be surprised at how they will sell. Get back some of what you paid for them. Hope this helps.

I would take them from you if I lived near you ;~). give them to the library I buy a lot of quilt book/mag from the ones around me also I pick them up from places like my local thrift shops (hospice, seinor thrift etc)

If the guild doesn't want them, maybe advertise on Freecycle?
