But don't expect to find anything in the way of lacemaking materials - they 
sell the UK version of the 'horror kit' and that's just about it. They do 
patchwork, cross stitch, tapestry, painting, pergamano, rubber stamping, 
dried flower arranging, and that kind of thing.


I think they're completely useless, but I still manage to spend GBP30 or 40 
each time I go there!

Michelle,

I think, when we went to Chester a couple of years ago, I remember
coming across a needlework shop in the centre. Unfortunately, Hobbycraft
has killed off most of the smaller craft shops (including the one where
I taught lace for the last 10.5 years - it closed a couple of weeks ago,
the class is moving to the library, with a change of day, starting the
Friday after our Lace Day (a week tomorrow!) - not exactly easy when you
need to do the last minute organising and the class is fragmented! 

If you look up DMC's main site for the UK, hopefully they will give a
listing of stockists - or maybe, links. Also look at the Lace Guild's
suppliers page (www.laceguild.org) - I'm not sure whether Church Meadow
Craft's shop (at a craft centre, can't remember which offhand, but it is
up in the Chester direction) is a possibility (they will be one of our
suppliers, and David will be giving a talk, at next year's lace day).

Or do a search with craft shops + Chester Cheshire as the requirements
(senior moment - the correct word has gone!. Not doing very well
tonight, am I!)
