Once again I’ve left it a little late to blog about this, but if you’re in welly this weekend I’d HIGHLY recommend popping by St Anne’s Church hall at the end of Emmett St in Newtown for Fabric-a-brac, to stock up on your sewing stash, and help someone else clear out theirs.
Bring along your sewing scissors if you need to get them sharpened, and they’ll also be able to answer your sewing machine maintenance questions and have sewing machine needles at great prices.
There will be the usual selection of vintage and modern fabrics, with highlights being special European designer fabrics and trims, some oh-so-cute Japanese fabric, high-quality upholstery fabric and a huge selection of buttons.
I’m especially excited about getting some goodies from Stitchbird and that lady with the amazing vintage buttons… See you there!
