Fabric Crawl circa Edgware Road

How does one get into deep trouble? Arrange to meet a fellow fabricaholic for lunch on Church Street.
Not the smartest thing to do when three of the best fabric shops in London are metres apart

Joel and Son Fabrics

Hadson Fabrics

Jason's Fabrics
(Absorbing Allans of Duke Street)

We are talking prices that will make one's eyes water.The fabrics are just stunning and stupendous prices to match. The knits including plain and print silk jerseys ,cobweb mohairs , hand knit look lace knits rayon&lycra knits TDF and the very best selection of felted wools.
Shops that should be in every sewer's address book.

Few hours later ( details heavily censored)............................



The black and white viscose & lycra knit will be for a tee top inspired by the Blumarine one Gigi on Behind the Seams blog had a little while ago

We were only able to count our pennies (literally ) for late lunch/snack in a greasy spoon by Church Street Market.

Later this week I should be able to post about the other end of my fabric shopping.The Dive
