So happy I went to this weekend!
I'm a big fan of trying to be eco friendly, particularly with shopping second hand. I scored my sectional couch off FB Marketplace for a great deal during the pandemic, but my favorite cushion has been developing some tears from constant use. I previously did visible mending to fix them, but when the most recent tears happened, I didn't have the patience to properly whip stitch the fraying edges, especially knowing it would just develop a tear in another spot. Thankfully Revive has an incredible stock of fabric, and somehow had the perfect material for me to do this large patch.
If you don't know, Revive is a creative reuse store; think a thrift store for craft supplies. So their entire stock is donated gently used (but mostly brand new!) craft supplies of nearly every variety! There's even an entire chest of scrap fabric, perfect for quilting or those odd little mends. Heck, I even scored an awesome working iron! Definitely beats my tiny travel one I've been using.
Highly recommend checking them out, they also do community focused events regularly.
