Our Social Fabric (OSF) is Vancouver’s only non-profit textile recycling initiative that has been in operation since 2009 in Vancouver, BC. OSF is run by a small but passionate volunteer Board. We receive donations of textiles, fabric and sewing related supplies from the film industry, theatre, manufacturing, estate closures together with home sewers and artists. Our team of volunteers sort through the donations and offer them back to the community at drastically reduced prices.
Our Next Sale Event is Thurs Jan 9, 2-8pm. We are looking forward to kicking off the New Year with a whole lineup of new fabrics and sewing workshops. The workshops page is being updated frequently as workshops fill up and new ones become available. Visit our Workshops Page to register!
