If you have any fabric you would like to give away I would love to have it.

“I make quilts for homeless, shelters, social services. I still have to buy batting, backing, thread and all the other things that go with quilting. Rotary blades, mats, maintenance for my long arm quilter. So it gets pricey to Make a quilt. Donated fabric helps cut the cost a little. Much appreciated.”
