Can anyone tell me what organization would like to get fabrics of
various types free of charge? My sister, who passed away this past
August, had loads of it as she was a very talented lady who could do
just about anything. However, her husband is now trying to unload
fabric - mostly for sewing clothes I would think. It would be nice to
have it go to a source that could do something very useful with it. He
lives in Nova Scotia, Canada, by the way.

Sometimes schools take it, or shelters, and retirement/or convalescent
homes. Or a community center. We do donations from the shop to the women's
shelter, and the nursing home. You might also consider a center that
teaches skilles to those with disabilities, or a local sewing or quilting
guild. There are a lot of charity activities going on. Just some ideas.

Well, there is a woman -- Jill Pochick of Critter Comforts (
http://www.crittercomforts.com ) -- who posts to RCTQ who takes any and
ALL types and sizes of fabric which she uses to make quilts for shelter
animals waiting to be adopted. Unfortunately, she's in Walled Lake, MI
and postage to ship it to her would likely be too costly. If you think
yore BIL would be interested in sending it to her anyway, let me know
show/hide quoted text
and I will e-mail her address. CiaoMeow >^;;^<

Tia Mary -
This link doesn't work - do you have an email or other address for her?
My GS troop is looking at doing their big Junior project (Bronze
Award) and several want to do something for animals - this would fit in
perfectly! You can post here or email me off list.
Thanks!
