I give all my sewing related items to an organization that does craft "therapy". They rehabilitate stroke, accident, and trauma victims (and others in need). I met her at a yard sale and when she explained to the people having sale, what she was looking for (they had nothing she needed). I told her I have a lot of brand new fabric and all kinds of thread, needles and even some sewing machines. She was a little hesitant and I asked not what you needed? No she says we need all of that, I only have a $20 a month supply budget, I told her no you can have them! She had a little mini van, that appeared to be full (with her organization logo on it). I told her I don't think you have enough room though. She asked where I lived, I told her no it's at my business. I told her I have a hobby, I scrap I said. Funny she thought I did scrap books, now I was confused. She explained to me about the hobby of making photo scrap books and that it was mostly women (I assured her not this man). I took her to my secret, better than scrap room. I showed her the boxes of sewing stuff and said you can have it all. I thought she was going to faint, she tells me, I will need to make a few trips, I said no we will deliver it to your organization on Monday morning. Jill thank you for this thread, I'm going to get her to make me a list of craft items. If anybody knows about "crafting" it's this lady. Then if you give it or sell it may help someone, it's just not my speed (I like tools).
