Recycled fabric clothing is always a great option when you want to buy new but be green at the same time! Robert - Bravo! It's a great option to adding to landfills, isn't it?!

I just took two boxes of yarns and fabrics to Goodwill. I also asked about donating a Twin Bed (including boxspring/mattress), and they even offered to pick it up! Remember, donating items that can be reused allows you to claim on taxes as a charitable deduction! Timely! I just took two boxes of yarns and fabrics to Goodwill.
