We have Mason's of Abingdon, three shops 1) curtains and knitting, 2) fabrics and anything to do with sewing, 3) embroidery, woolwork crafts and ribbon.
As you say nelliemoser not pretty shops but very useful and always busy. I was in 1) today getting wool and needles to teach DGD how to knit and also buy some curtain tape. Last week I was in 1 & 2 buying materials and ribbon for a quilt.
Anger management!!! Help needed.
