Charitable Crafting Project

Guest Program

The Charitable Crafting Project makes textiles for good causes. This session we will be making children's clothing to replenish the supplies at Gospel Rescue Mission for their back to school event. This year Gospel Rescue Mission is anticipating a greater need for kids clothes, and your participation is greatly appreciated! 

In a collaborative effort, participants work hands-on, each participating as they can.  Participants with higher levels of skills in a particular area can guide those with lower skill levels, and we'll make as many garments as we have the time, materials, and labor to make. 

This is a free program using donated materials. If you’d like to be involved, you can

• Help make clothing by sewing or assisting during the charitable crafting sessions
• Donate fabric or other sewing supplies by dropping them off at Cruces Creatives during business hours. The project can use yarn, fabric pieces of ½ a yard or longer, inner facings and linings, and other sewing supplies and notions.
• Donate new children's clothing.

Ages: 
18 and older, or 14-17 with a parent or guardian present
