What to do on a rainy Sunday? Hold our very first destash!
You may be asking what a destash is?  In short, it's a call out to people to go through old sewing supplies and fabric etc. and donate it to a good cause. With that good cause being Secret Projects!

We set up in the Pulborough Village Hall (which is close to where our Business Unit is), and, through various advertising methods, the word had spread and we were delighted to welcome scores of people who came along with their very gratefully received donations.

Donations weren't just brought in on the day, we had parcels sent to us and others dropped supplies round to our CEO's house in Pulborough ahead of the official destash day.

In total we collected 325 kilos of delici0us pre-loved sewing supplies.

Much of the fabric donated has been sorted and will be made up into our ever popular and best selling scrap packs available through our eBay and Etsy Stores. In fact, we now have over 30 different scrap packs to purchase and more will be added, so do keep visiting our stores.

We are still taking donations and if you do have any fabric or pre-loved sewing supplies, please do get in touch via fritha@secretprojects.org

And of course the most enormous thank you everyone who donated to, and also helped us run our very first destash! More to come!

Let's hear it for destashing!
