Threads Magazine Past Issues
mastdenman   Intermediate CA USA Member since 1/12/04 Posts: 5843	Login to reply to this post Like this post Date: 5/30/12 2:09 PM I have most of the Threads magazines from about 1992 through the present. We are getting ready to downsize and since I have the digital version, I would like to rehome most of these. Are there any organizations that would take such a collection? ------ Marilyn January 2009 to January 2010 81 yards out and 71yards in January 2010 to the present 106.7 yards out and 146.5 yards in. January 2011 to the present: 47 yards out and 69 yards in.

You could also sell them here in the classifieds. ------ "Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible." --Dalai Lama I have sewing machines

Some high schools here in Canada are now offering fashion and design programs so that might be another place to look. ------ Sheila "sewing very slowly to fill an empty closet" 2012/2013 Stash Busting Sew-Along: 27.25 yards sewn (as of 05/15/13) 21.75 yards purchased (as of 05/15/13)

Once a year I take the old issues to my sewing club - they vanish within seconds You might also check with local schools or daycare, who might recycle them into art projects (or read them!).

When I listed my collection I got the Express Mail boxes from the post office to first see how many magazines I could pack and then listed them as a "lot". This will also indicate how much shipping will cost the bidder. I even printed out the shipping/postage label and then all I had to do was drop off (and not stand in line) at the post office, or give to the mail delivery person - I live in the country, so pick-up is not an issue as it may be for one who walks the route.
