Small

Description:
Following a very successful sewing machine induction evening with 12 members, we’re in need of a few bits and bobs for the visual arts area.

The current A1 cutting mat in visual arts is in a terrible state. I intend to throw it away and replace it with a larger A0 self healing cutting mat.

The rest are general sewing machine stock. We don’t have any zipper feet currently, and have 3 machines, hence 3 feet. The fabric scissors we have are getting a bit blunt hence the new ones.

Nice choice on the scissors, I particularly like that they can be tightened or taken apart for cleaning and honing/sharpening.

I support this proposal.
