A couple of months ago, I was charged with finding a large quantity of fabric for an event I was…read moreplanning at work. After making an endless amount of phone calls to fabric shops, I ended up paying a visit to Fabric Bazaar on London Road. The shop is easy to find, and there's even a car park round the back. The staff were really friendly and helpful - and were more than happy to help me find what I was looking for. They have a huge selection of fabrics at Fabric Bazaar - and it's all very reasonably priced.They found me some fabric that was just what I was looking for - and far cheaper than I had been quoted elsewhere. After cutting it and rolling it up for me, they even carried it to my car. It doesn't get much better than that!

They buy job lots, so that affects what they have in stock, but they keep their Facebook page updated with what they have in and they also gave me a business card and told me to phone any time I wanted to ask about stock. I couldn't believe the prices - I got pure wool for £4.99 a metre and linen for £5.99 a metre. The staff couldn't have been friendlier or more helpful - I think I'm going to be a regular here! :-)

It's very much bigger…read morethan expected, especially in such a great location on the corner of Buchanan Street and Argyle Street. I was in here yesterday to get some threaded sequins for my Hallowe'en costume. (supposed to be ringmaster: looking more like pornographic clown) The sequin reels were only 40p a metre, which is totally affordable. Their range of fabrics is huge, and a few definitely caught my eye - especially the red and black fur. They have buttons and wool; patches and ribbons; and a seasonal Hallowe'en section. The Hallowe'en section has small accessories such as wigs, hats and masks. It's made me want to start making my own clothes, but this will probably go the same way as my jewellery-making, hat-knitting and my "eBay business empire".

Everything you could possibly want fabric or sewing related can be found here - and if it can't the lovely helpful staff will order it in for you. They have a fantastic selection of fabrics, sewing accessories and buttons (I had to once try and find 100 of the same buttons and this was the only place in the city that seemed to be able to meet my demands!). It's huge and light and airy. The staff are keen, and you won't leave empty handed. Promise.

It is not a very big shop but is well stocked with fabrics and other sewing items such as zips, ribbons, buttons etc. The prices are reasonable and the staff are friendly, helpfull and approachable. My first stop when I ever get time to make anything.

Isabel's Supasew is a great little knitting and sewing store just round the corner from Patrick Bus…read moreStation. It's not a huge place but it's amazing the selection of yarn they manage to pack in. It's not full of the expensive Alpaca and cashmere blends you might find in John Lewis but it does house a staggering range of colours and textures and all at a decent price. I first discovered the place when looking for yarn to use at a Yelp arm knitting get-together organised by Lucy B. I hadn't been able to find anything I liked elsewhere but there was a great choice at Supasew. I ended up choosing a felty blue and white yarn with a leopard print. I knitted up wonderfully and was so soft and snuggly! I was also tempted into buying a gorgeous random yarn that ended up becoming a lovely hat for my friend. My most recent trip was to buy some yarn for Christmas knitting projects, I knew exactly what I wanted and was pleased that they not only had what I needed but that there were different options to choose from. A fluffy white yarn and a sparkly red are now mine and will soon be transformed into lovely Christmas themed bits and bobs. I was running in and out tonight but I spotted about 10 other yarns I want to go back and have a look at. As well as yarns the shop also stocks a good variety of knitting needles, buttons, ribbons and other haberdashery bit and bobs to help you finish your project. So if you're looking to do some knitting and crochet and don't want to break the bank then head down to Supasew soon!

They sell some trims / buttons etc but I go in for their card making supplies. It is really good for the basics such as card and double sided tape etc and prices are excellent. You can buy sheets of A4 card individually or purchase a box of mixed card which is excellent value. They also sell more specialist items such as stamps, peels offs and decoupage sheets. Again there is a good selection of products and prices are really reasonable.
