To be excited about visiting a fabric shop!?

[JellySlice]

Any Berkshire quilters or yarnies, Lady Sew and Sew is open today. AIBU excited that I'm going there, and this time I'm taking my credit card? It's been years since I last did this.

Visiting LS&S is like being in the best sweet shop ever! Just £s instead of calories

Ooh. Really envious. Am nowhere near Berkshire but I love a visit to a fabric/ craft shop. I'd far rather spend on buttons, ribbons and gorgeous material than on clothes, shoes or chocolate. Have fun!

I don't even sew but I love a good old visit to a fabric shop, I love the smell of the rolls of fabric and all the tiny buttons :)

I would love this - I love a fat quarter

Buying fabric and sewing fabric are two separate hobbies. I love fabric but can't and don't really want to sew for toffee. Have a lovely spend!

Totally reasonable to being excited! Not being reasonable to take your credit card, if you’re like me you’ll bankrupt yourself

I have a really cheap cloth shop near me, it’s ace, but I have to go with a clear purpose or I just end up adding to my pile at home as I have no self control! Especially if they have some Rose & Hubble in.

YANBU, a fabric shop is a gorgeous treasure trove!

I went the last time the warehouse was open a couple of weeks ago. It’s a lovely shop. I limit myself to a visit every couple of months.

These are absolutely true. Which is why I try not to go there! Last time I went was for the quilting exhibition a year ago, and I made sure to leave my 'plastics' wallet at home.

Look at these beauties, front and back of the same quilt. Just seeing and touching them in real life is a joy. I will never make anything nearly as stunning, but I can dream in such a shop...
