It&#8217;s not a large shop, but everything is delightfully crammed in there, even including a teaching area. If you&#8217;ve never been, you can see that there are so many luscious threads, beautiful fabrics, charts galore, framed and non framed pieces to inspire and delight, and lots of other goodies.
