If you're a beginner like me don't expect tons of help, you're more likely to be waved over to look for yourself and will have to figure out if the fabric you chose will work for the project you have in mind. For the well researched beginner and upwards, though, this place is a pleasant antidote to the lofty yuppiness of John Lewis and its brethren, and the market's just round the corner for a post-shopping snack.

I had passed this fabric shop many a time, but never gone in. It looked like hard work and for…read moreevery nice fabric you may have to search through 100 foul rolls to find it. I was mistaken, my usual fabric shop was shut so rather than a wasted journey, I went in to have a look. Half an hour later I had whittled my selection down to an arm full of jerseys several wools and a few tartans. They have a pretty big selection bearing in mind the size of the shop and the price is amazingly reasonable. Now I have no reason to buy fabric anywhere else. But do bear in mind once the stock is gone, its gone... so buy what you see.

I know they do all that at school but I remember loving it and maybe when your mum/dad is there too you get a bit more attention and praise for your art. But kid's if you're reading this, just don't piss your mum off by drawing her fatter than the sun. Her head can be the size of the sun, that's fine but not her arse. They're not lying about the café bit either. They've got a really good coffee machine and lots of drinks and sandwiches and the like so that you can pass the time pleasantly enough too. Really great way for the kids to have a bit of fun and it's mighty sociable so you'll probably meet loads of the other local mother/fathers too.

I had a lovely afternoon after my long flight from Chicago, sitting with Vera and Faye, drinking coffee, munching cookies, and painting my bowl. The shop itself is adorable, with a nice cafe up front, gifts to buy, and an open airy studio in back. Faye and Vera are wonderful people and really made me feel welcome and well cared for. They were attentive to all of their costumers and the work space had a friendly, welcoming vibe. I painted a nice bowl, which was a perfect keepsake for my trip to London. Whether you are an out-of-towner like me, or live in the neighborhood, I recommend stopping by and even bringing the kids. Its a nice way to pass an afternoon.
