You need time and patience, and it is a bit of a hobby shop with much of the printed cotton and the like, but the are some treats if you dig. Excellent haberdashery, coffee shop on site, decent parking, little barns of yarn and wool, it's impressive to say the least. The main reason I am giving them five stars is because of the sheer excellence of their customer service. I called around several places trying to track down a rush stock of crin/horsehair braid. I rang stoke first, who I know used to stock the stuff, and they directed me to here, I chatted, they checked, they had, and reserved the stuff for me, knowing that I was still ringing round as emergency wedding dress help, they offered rushed posting, all sorts, but with me needing it same day it resulted in a sunny Saturday drive. They recognised my voice from the phone, were kind, cheerful and helpful, absolutely lovely ladies, and meant that one of my best friends could finish her beautiful wedding dress.

This place was a delightful little treasure trove to fuel the creative soul. From wool to fabrics,…read moreand a wide variety of crafting materials, you could probably find anything you desired here amongst the array of small barn like buildings. It's nicely laid out, with plenty of spaces to explore, and also has a really lovely cafe serving great food. I enjoyed a hot pork and stuffing bap, and then took home a giant scone with cream for later. They do a wide selection of hot and cold food and of course, home baked cakes. All very reasonably priced. So, if you're a crafter, it's definitely a great place to visit, find stock, and enjoy tea and cake too!

The staff were really helpful and gave a discount in view of a small mark on the fabric I needed. Upstairs there's also a remnants section worth checking out; I found a beautiful fabric on sale that I can't wait to use. The shop is a stone's throw from Hereford's pedestrian shopping area. I'm sure I'll be back at Badder sometime soon.

I get easily bored with twee craft emporiums flogging over-priced tat with birds stuck on it. Patricia Ann is an oasis of unhip haberdashery. Let me explain: I walk in and see shelf-upon-shelf stacked with plastic storage boxes. To say that the place is cluttered is an understatement. But it all makes sense to Patricia. She is sitting at her chair, normally reading the bible or knitting. A gas heater blazes away in the corner, filling the space with a cosy heat and a smell that reminds me of camping. I ask for a bodkin and she smiles, she puts down her bible/knitting and locates the bodkin box. She then charges me some ridiculously low price, says "god bless" and I leave thinking "Woah, that was one cheap bodkin". This shop sells all sorts of knitting and sewing paraphernalia. I think it is wonderful, but I do tend to get excited about things that other people think are a bit rubbish (I once declared Gossip Girl the "definitive TV show of a generation"). Go there at Christmas to stock up on ribbon - it is ridiculously cheap and there is a huge choice.

Recently moved from down the road into the old Lloyd's bank, I'm glad the village hasn't been left with a dead unit, and expanded to a ajoining bridal shop. Eugenie and Elisa are friendly and experienced with a lot to offer. Alterations work on a week turnover (there's always quite a queue), but they have been known to do shorter jobs when people ring up panicking. They do anything from turning up your trousers to fixing up your wedding dress, by hand and machine. They have a little changing room in the back of the shop, so you can try on to do a fitting- and they'll always be honest about fittings and costings. (just please take your stuff in clean!) If you can't find what your after squirrelled in the many nooks and crannies of the shop- just ask, as there's zips, cotton tapes, elastics, behind the till, and less popular odds and ends like rucksack clips upstairs.

I'm definitely more of a dressmaker than a quilter, but there is definitely enough here to fuel you or inspire you to start. Although there is a good range of prices, you could very very easily spend a lot of money in here, but such is the way with quilting! Some of the little fat quarter packs in particularly are to die for, and the haberdashery is a nice range too.
