She is now a permanent part-time employee in the sewing and alterations team, and says, “Home is this place. Second Stitch is part of my home.

What does B1-G1 mean anyway 🤷?⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ Our B1-G1 Face Mask initiative ensures that for each mask purchased, one also goes to someone in need through the help of our charity partners 💕, like @twogoodco, an organisation that distributes meals to those in need and has been working to feed and support domestic violence supporters through its ‘eat one, treat one’ initiative since 2015 🙆.⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ Alongside their donated meals, Two Good Co has been distributing the donated B1-G1 Face Masks to women’s shelters across Sydney and NSW including Wirrawee Aboriginal Women's Refuge, Blacktown Women's Refuge, The Marian Centre, Katoomba Women's Refuge and Bonnie's Support Services 💖.⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ 🌞 Holly* a recipient of one of our B1G1 masks said "I normally don't like to wear masks, but this one is so comfortable and beautiful… I love it!" ✨⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ We've currently sold out of our B1-G1 Face Masks online, but we're working hard to restock them on our website. In the meantime, we are stocking them in-store at our shop in Newtown – fabrics and prints tend to sell out quickly though, so we recommend coming earlier rather than later!⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ Holly* has had her name changed to ensure her privacy.
