Check out what Sam found in a donation today!

With how busy we were yesterday thanks to post that went viral, we're sure this won't last long on the shelf.

Sorry, we can't hold fabric. But happy to send you a payment and post out if required.

🌿 Impact Update – You Did This! 🌿

Before our move, we were proudly averaging around 100kg of fabric saved each month at East Ivanhoe. With the big transition to Eaglemont, things dipped a little last month (totally expected!)…

But WOW — you showed up in the best way possible 💚
✨ In May, together we rehomed an incredible 210kg of fabric! ✨
That’s more than double our usual impact — and it’s all thanks to this amazing community choosing to donate, shop, and support sustainable reuse.
Every metre saved = less waste, more creativity, and a step toward a more sustainable future ♻️🧵

From all of us at The Fabric ReStore: thank you for being part of the movement. We couldn’t do this without you.

Let’s keep the momentum going 💪

💛 A note about fabric donations — please read before you drop off!

First of all — thank you. The generosity of this community when it comes to donating fabric and sewing supplies is truly something special and we never take it for granted. 🧵

Throughout 2025 we kept donations limited to 1–2 boxes per person simply because we didn't have the space to accept, sort, fold and store larger amounts. We know that was frustrating for some of you and we appreciate your patience and understanding. 🙏

Now that we have a little more room at Eaglemont, we are slowly able to accept more — but the physical time to process donations and our storage capacity are still very real limitations for us. We are a small team doing a big job! 😄

Before you drop off, please check our Fabric Donation Information Sheet available on our website — it will give you everything you need to know about what we accept, how to prepare your donation and how to plan your drop off.👇

And while we have you — this is exactly why we are currently seeking financial support. 💛

It is the steady, ongoing flow of fabric donations coming through our doors that makes what we do possible — and also what makes it challenging to sustain without support. Every dollar contributed to our fundraising campaign helps us keep processing, keep sorting and keep making beautiful once-treasured fabrics available to you, our community.

💛 This is why we do what we do.

Meet Suzanne from Mansfield — one of our longest and most loyal customers, with us since the very beginning at East Ivanhoe. 🧵

Suzanne's nearest fabric shop is 1.5 hours away — and 2 to 3 hours if she's after quality and unique fabrics. So when she visits us, she makes it count! But more than that, Suzanne is a teacher who lets her students shop her own fabric stash — meaning the impact of every purchase she makes ripples far beyond herself. 🌿

Postage isn't cheap right now — but neither is petrol. And at our fabric prices, it's genuinely a win for everyone. Suzanne's students get quality, unique fabrics at an affordable price, and more fabric stays out of landfill. 🙌

As a self-funded social enterprise, we rely entirely on our community to keep doing what we do — rescuing fabric, running programs, supporting teachers, and making creativity accessible to everyone regardless of where they live.

Every share and/or contribution to our fundraising campaign helps us do more of this. More fabric rescued. More students creating. More communities connected. 💛
