Those that went along were happy to be able to take away, for free, all sorts of things including fabric, patterns, Christmas decorations, decorations for decoupage, haberdashery and craft materials.

The Youth Service had a toy swap table and Crediton Lions had Christmas jumpers and decorations which could be purchased or swapped.

There were refreshments available throughout and much cake was enjoyed!

Reusing clothes by swapping them proved to be very popular and was much appreciated by those who attended.
