  • I received my fabric from you this morning & to say I am delighted is an understatement. Not only is the fabric beautiful but the sustainable packaging & your beautiful hand written note tops it all! I will certainly be purchasing from you again.

  • Having used the jersey material I brought from you a few weeks back I felt I had to contact you!

    I’ve purchased a number of jersey fabrics from other suppliers but first time with you. The quality of your fabric was outstanding, along with the prompt service and price, thank you.All future purchases will be from you!
