I went here today on my own fact finding mission and I was pleasantly surprised, in fact I felt overwhelmed by the quantity and quality of all of the fabric. Like @Ellabella says it is mainly upholstery weight fabric, the majority of it in very good condition and some nice modern prints, with a decent amount on some of the rolls.

I bought some pink chambray, some lemony coloured linen mix and lemon/cream stripe linen mix.

Everything £4 per metre with some offcuts for £1. Also spotted a basket with bags of buttons for erm £1 or £2, can't remember  :P

There's also some decent nicknacks and furniture, well worth a look round  :loveit:

O one question @Ellabella can they take card payments or cash only?  8)

Wow @datcat23 that looks really cool, and I do love a bargain. I picked up some fabric from a charity shop near me a few months ago for two quid and managed to get a jumpsuit out of it. Along with bias binding from an Aldi FQ it has to be my cheapest outfit ever, well, apart from donated fabric of course  :P

I have this pattern and have put off making it up as it was too short. You have inspired me to make it up now and lengthen it.
I made one up as floor-length for a 'summer-waft-around' I loved it

A bit of a 'do' / Re: Nice Bow Tie Tutorial
« on: May 02, 2019, 13:27:12 PM »
It's good to have a recommendation for fiddly little projects such as this, thanks. I made a poppy bow tie for  :woof: Max for November using a pattern and tut from a magazine but needed to make the neck band longer and it was a tad more tricky than I'd have liked. However, it looks great on him (mama speaking)  ;)
