Free FABRIC SCRAPS...
Hello there .. free advertisement for me!
I have lots and lots of fabric offcuts and pieces that have been left over from jobs I have done as part of my StitchtasticNZ clothing alteration and new jobs, biz in kaiapoi.. . if you want to come and collect them I’ll put a couple of pictures on here.. foto. does not cover everything that is available in each bag.. Rest assured some pieces are probably too small .. unless you or your daughter like making Barbie dolls clothes .. the rest are great for anything that you want to use them for even if you’re part of girl-guides. cubs Scouts ..primary school.. nursery school.. anything
I really don’t mind !! up until mid last year I was throwing them all away so I offered a couple of supermarket bags chocker full of the same.. it was so popular last time
fabric remnants come and get them.
As part of the latest SEWING bee some of these are offcuts from making bags and pouches for the burn victims in Australia thank you
What workplace change would you like to see most?
This coming Monday is Labour Day in New Zealand. This public holiday marks when the eight-hour workday and 48-hour workweek became law in 1899. The idea started with Samuel Parnell, a carpenter in Wellington, who in 1840 refused to work more than eight hours a day. Since skilled workers were in short supply, his employer had to agree.
As more skilled workers arrived, employers tried to change working conditions, but Parnell and others kept pushing for better rights. In 1890, Parnell led a Labour Day parade of 1,500 people to promote the eight-hour day. He passed away shortly after, and nine years later, Labour Day became an official public holiday.
