Have you thought about selling fat quarters on ebay? I notice they sell for $2 each and most fabric isn't $8 a yard. Plus, if you have a big stash, it will reduce the stash. You can take pix of the fabric to show, then cut it AFTER you are paid. All you will be out of pocket is the "entrance" fee on ebay, about 15 cents each.

Just a thought....

Or precut squares...

I know how almost impossible it is trying to get a degree and having a family to support at the same time. I went to night classes, worked all day and had a second job on weekends. No aid of any kind available for me, not even child care. It can be done. Your DH will have to give up family time and go to job, school, job, school. He's lucky he has a wife that is as supportive as you are.

Another important thing to remember is that if you are going to be selling things, getting business cards etc. you will need a business license!

Fastweb.com is a great free scholarship listing site. It helps sort and search for the ones that might be of interest and applicable to your situation..there are hundreds and easy to apply for. It will notify you should any new ones that fit your profile become available. I say any free money is good!! Then the more you earn, the more you keep!! Borrow if you must, but avoid it as best you can..it adds up really quick. Good luck :D
