For those feeling a little overwhelmed or underwhelmed by the state of their stash, we invite you to join us at the third annual Restash 2018 (Melbourne).

What is a Restash? It’s a fabric, notions, yarn and pattern swap… the chance for people to give-away items that they no longer have a need for (destash) and for fellow crafters to take home items that inspire (restash).  This is a free event, but we do ask that you bring at least one item to swap.

DATE: Saturday February 24th
TIME: 2pm – 4pm
LOCATION: Fairfield Community Room (opposite Fairfield Library – 121 Station Street, Fairfield)

Bring your unwanted fabric, notions, yarn and patterns.  Can you please bundle fabric and label with type (if known) and meterage (width and length).  We will have a section just for fabric scraps (hooray!).  Fabric scraps will need to be at least 30cm x 30cm and will not require bundling or labelling.

Browse while chatting with fellow crafters.

Rehome anything that takes your fancy.  At the conclusion of the day, excess items will be donated to charity.

And those who want to make a day of it, there are several nearby sewing retailers…
