IMAGE GALLERY: Natick Fabric Place Basement Hosts Charity Sewing Event

Volunteers gathered at the Natick's Fabric Place Basement to create clothing for dolls which will be donated to Toys for Tots.

Sitting at sewing machines, surrounded by thousands of different fabrics at Natick's Fabric Place Basement, volunteers busily crafted tiny pieces of clothing that will benefit those in need during the holidays.Β 

Lorrie Ferraro, president of the Boston Chapter Sewing Guild said she hopes the event will produce 100 handmade sets of doll-size clothing. The tiny outfits will be donated along with matching dolls, to the Toys for Tots foundation.Β 

"I've been sewing all my life, and it's better when you get to give something to someone," Sandi Henderson-Agius, volunteer at the event, said.
