Urgent where can I buy fabric paints or pens?

Am I imagining that I used to see a kind of pen specifically for drawing on t-shirts? I hope not because dts are in the Gala day on Saturday and thanks to everything happening at once I haven't had time to look until now.

So I have two days in which to find fabric paints suitable for doing the German and Dutch flags (the theme is World Cup and as some children might not have football t-shirts the idea is each child has to paint them!)

Help!!! Anywhere in or near Edinburgh!!!!

ooh sorry yes dept store haberdashery dept or art shops usually have them. is there a Hobbycraft near you, they'll have them

Sadly Hobbycraft haven't come over the border yet, wish they would though.

I had tried WH Smith but no luck, might try a larger store. Otherwise it looks like a trip to JL, oh well.

Thanks everyone!

JL definitely had them last week. Both fabric pens and paints. They are at the edge of the craft/wool section just near the toys. Good luck :)

Dunelm Mills do them quite cheaply .
