Our 'Maker's Pantry' - fully stocked with ingredients for creative living
Our amazing collection of pre-loved sewing materials, the Maker's Pantry is a haven for creatives looking to develop their projects using second-hand materials. We receive daily donations from our community, which makes every visit a unique experience. From fabrics to patterns, to buttons, zips, notions and beyond.
Contact us to let us know what you’re looking for, as we are slowly adding items to this webstore as an appetizer of the options available!
