I have a favourite place this week, it's my local quilting store. Cooroy Drapery. It's a lovely store and the owner, Margaret, is always happy and smiling and so helpful. She has a great name too!
If I need any sewing supplies I always pop in there first, hoping that she carries what I want, and most of the time I find exactly what I'm looking for. It's like an Aladdin's Cave in there. Zips, buttons, thread, yarn, crochet hooks, patterns, ribbons, fabric, etc.
It saves me having to drive a 100km round trip to Spotlight, and I much prefer having a nice chat with Margaret or her staff than going to Spotlight, a huge impersonal store and usually finding that they don't quite have what I want.
Today I was able to buy some zips, some Gutermann thread that matched perfectly with my fabric for raw edge applique, paper pieces for triangles that I want to try, and some pre-made binding.
I love that there is a good old fashioned store like this with great service only 10 minutes away.
Linking up with Shay who has outed me this week! Sad to say my reputation is sullied for all time. I really thought I hadgot away with convinced assured everyone I am a quiet, well behaved innocent angel.
