What are your favourite colours
@hernibs ???? Do you favour patterns or plains ?
What a lot of shops forget is you must have basics and blenders to go with all the novelty and pictorial prints.
Case in point is our local quilting shop, Cotton Moon (Blandford) who has some gorgeous stuff but is nearly always busy patterns and cute pictorials leaning heavily to the kiddie market ... I should open a shop next to hers called, Batiks, Basics and Blenders and then when she sells someone their two fabulous must have prints, they can come over to mine and buy the five blenders they need to go with!!!
We must also remember that you are in Ireland, so delivery wont be as quick as to the UK; I particularly like my local to me (well not really, its an hour and a half away) Emporia Gloriana ..... that is Midsomer Quilting (Chilcompton, nr Bathish)
They are so helpful and will post same day at cost.
Apart from that, Doughty's (
They come to you too ) ... Lady Sew'n'Sew ... Cotton patch, (not so quick on Delivery I found recently)
Welcome to our world
