At a garage sale our street had my husband tried to sell expensive quilted cotton fabric I had bought and regretfully never used but stored in the attic. I removed it from the sale saying "It is for Operation Shoebox." If I can't bring it over Monday I'll pm you.

They certainly would...we use the fabric coupons from Joann's Fabric store so donations help purchase this fabric. Checks could be made to Operation Shoebox and in the memo section kindly write "for fabric".
Thanks
Pat

I have some leftover fabric from a duvet cover...it is a wine color. Does color matter?
