hi everyone,
backstory on the clothes: they have been donated over time by different people to be used as raw material for sewing projects. we haven't had a lot of sewing lately (partially due to the fact that many people probably didn't know that we had a sewing machine), but if you are on the verge of beginning a sewing project using these clothes, please let the list know.
a couple more thoughts:
- people donate things to us out of kindness and with the intention that they will be used at sudo. when we do decide to do other things with their donations we should be mindful of their intent. this is just something to keep in mind as we clean up and remove things from the space.
- many of the items in the bins are not actually clothes, but are scraps or cut-up clothes. when donating to salvation army, please ensure that you are only giving them whole, wearable clothes and not scraps.
