Feel free to arrive any time between 1:30pm and 4:30pm. Tables will be set out according to the categories above. When you arrive, place your swap items on the appropriate table. Browse the selection and take something new that you can make use of. Feel free to come along even if you don't have much to swap - this is a great way to gather supplies if you're new to sewing or have a limited budget.
