Fabric shop :)

People had told me about this fabric shop (details at the end) a few times and said that I would love it in there and it's only recently that I've been in - I'm very glad I did!

This is one half of the room where all fabrics are £1 a metre.

And this is the other half of the £1 a metre room. Small child borrowed for scale :)

This is the dress fabrics section

And this is another aisle! There are many more aisles and they have upholstery fabrics too. There is also a great section of laces and beautiful 'wedding dress' fabrics. In fact there is so much lovely fabric that I could stay in there for hours. I didn't this time though but still managed to get 6 metres of fabric (total cost £6!) See what I bought below.

4 metres of lovely soft jersey fabric - I'm thinking some clothes for the girls from this? The top fabric is navy blue rather than black.

Some pretty Laura Ashley boat fabric - again it was £1 a metre :)

And here is the aforementioned small child  - it seems she approves* of my fabric choices!

So where is this cave of fabric wonders? It's in Burnley, just off Colne Road in Bright Street. You will see it as soon as you turn into Bright Street as it's in an old chapel on the right. If you know the area at all it is very near to Lidl but isn't the street opposite - it's the next one up the road (past Oddies the bakers) It is called Emmanuel Fabrics and its open on Mondays and Thursdays only but it does open on Bank Holidays :) It doesn't take cards but there is a cash point on Cone Road back past Lidl outside KFC. If you like charity shops then there is one as you come out of Emmanuel and turn left onto Colne Road and it is about 4 doors up :) If you ever feel the need to visit and need personal directions then let me know as I'm always on hand when it comes to fabric shops :)

*She came round looking at fabric with me while her mum was looking at oilcloth and as I kept pulling fabrics out she kept telling me to 'put that back - you don't need it!' It was hilarious :)
