Now that I have rediscovered this amazing haberdashery shop it will save me loads of trips into town. I was impressed with the diamante-studded zips on my last visit. I am sure I will come up with an idea to use them soon. It all looks a bit messy, but I think there is method to the madness. Best of all, this is a real local shop for local people :-) and it is best not to be in a hurry and get chatting. Almost every purchase involves a trip to the shop next door for change. Love it!

I picked up some good quality cotton fabric here for a surprisingly low price. That I did, was…read morethanks to the intense haggling exchange I unwittingly found myself minutes after stepping into the shop. Possibly because I genuinely wasn't there to buy, I managed to get some fabric at 25% off the price originally stated and indeed touted at some of the neighbouring fabric shops. I was happy with the fabric and the price paid. I can therefore declare myself a fan of this place.

One visit: 2.5/5 The…read morecloth shop is small but stuffed with fabrics. I just wanted a simple off-white cotton and the owner helped me find something suitable. She cut me a generous metre and the price was low so I was very pleased. The HUGE disadvantage: they keep a dog - INSIDE the shop. I don't mind dogs, but I am incredibly annoyed that I am now picking black dog hairs from my fabric. Many people have dog allergies, so it is not only unprofessional but inconsiderate to allow the cloths to be contaminated with dog hair. I am not sure whether I will use the Cloth Shop again due to this dog hair issue, which is a real shame as it is local and the staff were knowledgeable and helpful.

This is a great resource for your fabric needs - and then some. Not only does this shop - which…read morehas been around for 15 years - sell a wide range of special linens by the meter, they also stock stacks of blankets and other fabric furnishings. There are antique welsh, alpaca and gorgeous baby blankets alongside indian silk shawls and lambswool, cashmere and merino wool throws. Their Hungarian grain/flour sacks - in lovely chunky textured linen - and sets of antique linen tea towels always catch my eye.

I came here the other day looking for fabric for an outfit that my friend is going to make me and we got some great gold and silver fabric which was £3 a meter and some black and white cotton for which was only £1 a meter. I found some of the shop assistants in the other fabric shops nearby to be pretty pushy, (In one place the shop assistant hit on my friend) but here they just left us alone to roam around and get inspired.
