<p>I'm having a clear out (as i'm going away in August) and getting rid of loads of fabric which includes many different fabrics/colours/patterns there are mostly large pieces over a few metres as well as smaller pieces under a metre. It so far comes to 4 large plastic boxes but i haven't finished yet.</p>

<p>Hi All,</p>

It so far comes to 4 large plastic boxes but i haven't finished yet.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I would like to see it go to a good cause rather than try to sell it as I know there are so many worthwhile projects going on who could do something amazing with all this fabric!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If you feel this is you, please send me an email and let me know how you would benefit from this. I am based in London so this probably really applies to those also based in the London area unless you can travel to collect.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I look forward to hearing from you!</p>
