Community Sewing Bee — This Saturday!
Just two days to go!
Our Community Upcycling Sewing Bee is happening this Saturday 25 October, and we can’t wait to get creative together!
Bring your sewing machine, enthusiasm, or even just helping hands — there’s always something to do: cutting, ironing, unpicking, or sewing for a great cause.
Why we’re sewing:
All proceeds from our upcycled products go towards raising awareness of ovarian cancer — a disease that takes the lives of one New Zealand woman every 48 hours. Early detection saves lives, so every stitch counts.
With International Repair Day just behind us (18 October), this is the perfect time to celebrate repair, reuse, and community action.
Saturday 25 October
Rothesay Bay Hall, Cnr Rothesay Bay Road & Beulah Ave
Drop in any time between 10am & 3pm
Fabrics kindly supported by Thread Lightly, who will also join us on the day!

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕
Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
