Just like an Aladdin's cave! You don't see many shops like that these days, but I don't sew much as my shape has changed. God willing we will be grandparents in a few months. so maybe some dungarees?.....
My grandmother had a market stall selling fabric that was just like that.
When she died, 10 years after she had closed the stall, she still had an entire shed (which was painted lavender - just because it was a shed didn't mean that it couldn't be pretty) full of fabric and a whole wardrobe jampacked with buttons, including some rubber ones on their original card. (Rubber ones don't get crushed by the mangle, you see).

If you are commenting on something to do with one of my fostered children, please respect confidentiality and don't post details I haven't already mentioned on the blog. Thanks Tia
