This gorgeous gem of a material shop is somewhat hidden, being tucked around the corner (on a busy…read moreroad, granted) and so slightly off the beaten track, but that doesn't seem to detract from the quality herein. As the canal bubbles away next door, people mill in and out, browsing the many racks of bargain cuts, huge rolls of material and various assorted items. I came here for the first time a few weeks ago and it's like a crafties' dream. The shop itself is much bigger than those I've visited in Leeds, so there's a lot more choice, and the staff are really lovely and helpful. They have tons to browse, including a number of rolls with money off, and a range of racks with bargain-priced cuts. I purchased some gorgeous tapestry style material and some beautiful embroidered silk for a mere £10! It was meant to be a little more but she knocked off a few pounds and rounded it down to ten. Although there was a bit of a queue, which can't really be helped when purchasing different types of material, that certainly made it worth the wait. For a seriously dreamy browse bring your imagination and let it run wild. There's so much in here to choose from you'll forget what it was that you wanted to make in the first place and start a number of new projects based simply on the exciting material they have in stock!

This is probably the best-stocked fabric shop in the market with an extensive range of fabrics from…read morecotton, wool, acrylic, polyester and netting to lino and PVC for table cloths. B&M fabrics also earn bonus points for keeping their stock well organised and neatly displayed, which allows for easy browsing - other fabric shops in the market can have rolls of fabric stacked in slightly chaotic piles. Rather than just a counter you can actually step into the shop and browse the fabrics more closely enabling customers to get a good feel of all the fabrics on offer. The staff always seem to be very helpful but are also happy to allow you to browse. The prices here are probably about average for fabric shops in Leeds. If you don't find what you're looking for at B&M fabrics there are at least two other fabric shops nearby.

When I had grand ideas of making myself clothes with my recently inherited sewing machine I skipped…read morealong to the market to see what it had in store for me. I found B and M Fabrics with a great range of things, probably because they are providing fabric to people who can and do actually make their own clothes. I explained my idea to the fabric lady and she took the time to discuss and demonstrate how I could make a wrap-around skirt and how much material I would need to do this. So this was all really helpful but, alas, the skirt remains unmade. Aside from my grand plans, this fabric store has a wide range of fake-fur animal prints, and rolls of table cloth lino and lots of foam or wading.

Jacks Fabrics is one of several fabric shops in Leeds Market that, together with the others…read moresatisfies a wide range of fabric needs. Their offering includes a range of cottons, wools, acrylics and net. There are a variety of colours and prints and some shimmery sheer fabrics and lace. They also sell clothes patterns and have a section dedicated to curtain fabrics and a range of net curtains. Most of the prices are reasonable, some rather cheap and most are clearly indicated with neon tags...helpful when rooting through loads! The staff are friendly and helpful and happy to let you browse for as long as you need. I wouldn't say Jacks is my favourite fabric shop in the market but it is definitely worth a look!

Fabrics aren't really organised into types so a browse around this shop may require a bit of a dedicated rummage, but prices are reasonable and the staff are very helpful.
