But I have that Friday feeling again, so here we go
This concludes a couple of hours snapping as Laura, my house guest filled several bags with copious amounts of fabric and stuff.
From its humble beginnings in 1971, the fabric shop has expanded into an empire. Mostyn remains its head office and command centre.
Come on it's cold and wet out here, lets get inside and get warm.
The principal building of the complex, the lower floor consists of heavier fabrics for like curtains and stuff as well as general haberdashery and stuff.
Just a quick peek upstairs before we hit the gift shop.
Looks like folk enjoy rooting round in the mixed fancy section
Laura my sweet.....
.....if you would like to make me a shirt?
The Gift shop:
AKA, How to spend more money
Now I am not averse to buying stuff that supports local artisans and small business, but tat made out of the country or something you can buy in the supermarket does not appeal in anyway shape or form.
Abakhan fabrics has eighteen outlets in the Uk and also in Estonia and Latvia.
