How about a little theatre group? I have used some truly ugly polyester stuff as a costume for the movie a friend is making. It isn't historical, but then the movie isn't either. Some little theatre groups put on plays from the 50's and 60's and the fabric would be great for them.

They often have projects going that use a wide variety of scraps. Or assisted senior care facilities. Ours locally have a craft room that need to be "fed" on a regular basis. The art teacher at a local elementary school is always asking for my scraps that she uses on a variety of textile projects.
