    You can also list them on ebay, or sites like that. People who are interested in quilting look there.

    How about giving to a local quilt shop? They might like a library corner.

    If you have a local library they might take them.

    A friend of mine sells them on Amazon. If Amazon already sells the book, she doesn't have to post picture and prices about $1.00 less than those already for sell. She has sold many of her books and the process if very easy.

    I have just donated 2 boxes full of quilting books to our church to sell at their annual flea market.

    We are downsizing now, so I will fix a "Batch" to sell on Amazon and when that batch is done, I will send another batch. c I have more than a few.

    Depending on how basic or complex the books are can help you decide a new home for them. Maybe you could contact a local group that makes charity quilts such as Linus Project or Quilts of Valor. Each group should have a contact person. You may want to find someone that has the tools, etc. to use the books. What about a Girl Scout, 4-H or Homeschoolers group?
    The library is good choice as well. My library will sell donated books and magazines that they don't shelve in the front lobby and on big book sale days. For either a dollar or two, I picked up plenty that way!
