If only there was somewhere like that within 25 miles of where I live.

Yes, I have access to most of those things within 25 miles, but not all under 
one roof.

Within 10 miles there is Presencia UK (Finca threads and their own BL patterns 
and pillows), a pretty good patchwork and quilting shop and a couple of shops 
selling card making materials and a reasonably good range of fine art 
materials.  

Within the 25 mile radius there’s a Hobbycraft (big box store selling a large 
range of craft items but if it’s not on the shelves finding a member of staff 
who knows one one of a crochet hook from the other end of a paint brush is a 
rarity) and a few shops with a limited range of sewing/dressmaking fabrics and 
knitting yarns, including John Lewis department store.   BUT, when you know 
your crafts you know that there is so much more that might be available.  
Unfortunately that’s why mail order is becoming such big business/
