A Stitch in Time
A Stitch in Time a Sybil Connolly Crowdfunding Campaign (19th of January to the 8th of March)
22 November, 2021
About the campaign
With the help of very generous funders, we can restore Sybil’s garments to their former glory. Many were 70 years old and had been worn and loved by Irish women, and they were in need of urgent repair. We raised €12,500 via our Fund:it crowdfunder towards the cost of employing a professional conservator for the restoration.
