MEMBER MAKES // Our fabric swatches are the perfect size to make a purse, make up bag or pencil case. Take a look at these a member brought in to show us. Lyn embroidered her denim swatches and lined her super- handy little bags with fabric scraps and zips from the scrapstore.

FABRIC SALE // Yes, our fabric sale date has been decided and will be on Sat 11th July, 10am-1pm. Held in our art room and open to all, anyone is welcome to come and see what we have available. GRC Scrapstore members do get 50% of sale prices, so it may be worth joining on the day.

The Scrapstore will also be open for shopping with lots of lovely new items out on the shelves and in the barrels. Both the sale and the Scrapstore are open 10am- 1pm.

This sale has been funded by Gloucestershire County Council to support activities that help reduce carbon. Fabric re-use saves emissions twice - once by preventing the material from becoming waste and once by replacing the need for new materials that would require precious resources and energy to produce ♻

When: Sat 11th July, 10am-1pm
Where: GRC, City Works, Alfred Street, Gloucester GL1 4DF
