Resources for Fabric Donation and for Unfinished Projects

Make and Mend is a second-hand craft and art supply store in Somerville, MA. They issue a bulletin listing new stock each Friday, and they take contributions. “Given the shortage of good stores, and the rising cost of supplies, this seems worth investigating. “ – Barbara
Donations accepted. https://makeandmendshop.com/

Have an unfinished quilt, sweater, blanket, rug, or embroidery project left behind by a loved one?

Loose Ends aims to ease grief, create community, and inspire generosity by matching volunteer handwork finishers with projects people have left undone due to death or disability. When a crafter dies mid-project, or is no longer able to do handwork due to disability or illness, they will likely have unfinished items they were making for friends and family. These tangible, handmade expressions of love could get lost, donated away, or thrown out. Our volunteers finish the projects and then return them to the loved ones they were being made for. Projects and finishers are welcome from anywhere in the world. All our services are provided at no cost. Learn more, get involved, and support our work! https://looseends.org/
