THE BIG SEW OFF 2023:

We managed to raise over £14k through The Big Sew Off in 2023 thanks to the generosity of the sewing community!

BACKGROUND:

Sew Over It started The Big Sew Off in 2022 as a way to give back through sewing. We chose to fundraise for mental health charity Mind because of the strong link we believe exists between our favourite hobby and mental health. The first event raised £8k for Mind, exceeding all our expectations. The Big Sew Off grew exponentially in 2023 with many more sewing businesses and personalities joining our sewathon and over £14k raised!

The 24 hours of The Big Sew Off are a lot of fun! You can follow our progress at the HQ and cheer us on through the Live Stream on YouTube and tune in for hourly Instagram Lives!
