Went to my mum’s local Community Centre yesterday and sewed a “Boomerang Bag” on the sewing machine. It was so fun! 🤩

The bags cost $2 for customers to buy, and the sewing group get to choose which charity they donate the monies to (the last $1,000 went to buy extra breast pumps for the neonatal unit at the local hospital) 🥹

All of the fabric is donated for free; there’s hardly any waste; and the bags are made by volunteers who range from complete beginners to experienced tailors! 🪡

It was really lovely to be a part of the group all working towards a common goal together, and I left feeling warm and fuzzy after being able to put my skills from a hobby to use, for something really charitable 🧵
