Because my husband just recycled about a million This Old House, Smithsonian, Discover, Amateur Astronomy and other miscellany...we had to rearrange the basement to get new ducting put in for the air conditioner and these were just taking up space.

I delivered another 20 quilting magazines to Ruth today - she is going to look through them and pass them on to one of our other quilting friends with strict instructions that they are not to come back to me. I now have enough space in my quilting cupboard to tidy everything away inside instead of all over the top!

Sometimes a good clear out does you good! With some trepedation I am ready to get back to the BOM now.

I think it would be nice to donate a few of them to hospital waiting rooms and doctors' offices who seem to only subscribe to Golf, Sports Illustrated, Parents' or Arthritis Today.

CaroleD OFFLINE Posts: 229 Thank you received: 3	This is one I can do! I only have one magazine in the house - the latest Quilt Life. It will get recycled when the next one comes. I do NOT subscribe to any other magazines just so that I won't have to deal with them later.
