How to organise a fabric swap: 7 top tips

Описание: I’ve organised two fabric swaps at Craft Central in London’s Docklands and I am so pleased with how they both went. Thanks to the friendly and collaborative nature of sewists along with a bit of organisation. Yvette from Stash Hub helped me organise the swap in January 2024 which over 200 people attended. We have pulled together our top tips to help others organise their own swap. There was a lot of unwanted fabrics on offer so the more people that hosts swap the better it is for the environment and less fabric will be thrown into landfill.
