Steve Bane Fabrics

Great shop to browse if you’re into sewing your own furnishings and/​or clothes, or are just looking for something to make into a zany fancy-​dress costume.
They sell dress and curtain fabric by the meter, or even smaller amounts if you ask nicely!
Plus they do a fun range of fake fur and neon coloured prints for wilder forays into needlework.
Plenty of accessories — patterns, linings, cushion stuffings, buttons and frills and furbelows, along with curtain poles and tracks and blinds. They run a made-​to measure Curtain Making Service, if you’re more into choosing fabric and colour than actually makings the things!
Established local shop with helpful local assistants — a real feel of traditional shopping.
