Surrey Sews - Sewing Swap

Got lots of sewing stuff you wont use cluttering up your stash? Bring it to the Surrey Sews Sewing Swap and exchange it for something you will love!

Tickets include an optional donation towards the GRA refugee sewing project. Weekly sessions give refugees a chance to sew together, building community and bringing them joy as they create things themselves. This program is headed up by Mel and relies entirely on volunteers and donors, so we really appreciate any support you can give.

What to bring:

• Quilting precuts and fabric remnants
• 1-2m lengths of fabric
• 2-3m cuts of fabric
• 3+m cuts of fabric
• Sewing patterns
• Notions/Haberdashery including fastenings, thread, trims, labels
• Tools

Please label your fabric with the length and fibre content (if known) and only bring clean items of good quality that others could make use of.

Join us between1:30pm and 4:40pm at the Maybury Centre in Woking. The Sewing Swap will be hosted in the Lounge (ground floor). Parking is available at the Maybury Centre and it is a 10 minute walk from Woking Train Station.
