Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we are bursting at the seams with supplies to take our artists and patrons through the holiday season in abundance! We are taking some time to regroup and focus on sales during this busy time of year.

Second Stitch: A Commitment to Reducing Textile Waste Through Creative Re-Use

Every year, Stitch Buffalo rescues for re-use over 15,000 pounds of textile arts tools and supplies—plus over two hundred sewing machines.

Second Stitch is the name we give to Stitch Buffalo’s sustainability program—because we give a second life to donated supplies no longer needed by other artists, crafters, and businesses. These supplies are integral to creating the products in the Refugee Women’s Workshop, and they are used as the basis for all of our classes and kits.

Any items we can’t use directly in Stitch Buffalo projects are are offered to the community at huge discounts. We are committed to keeping these useful materials out of landfills and in the hands of local artists who can bring them to life in their own creations. All proceeds go directly to sustaining Stitch Buffalo programming.
