A Crafty Christmas!

My daughter and I used to love going to the local 'Sewing Machine' shop. Sadly it closed down earlier this year so we've had withdrawl symptoms! 

I knew that The Wimbledon Sewing Machine Company had another shop in Tooting Bec for some time but since it's not quite on our door step we hadn't ventured there until now. And boy what an adventure we had...
We had a spare afternoon so decided to hanging out together and have some 'mummy time'. We decided to go the 'sister' shop since I needed to get some fabric for Tabby's Tunes and there's always some craft kits my daughter always wants to buy so we ventured to Tooting Bec.

​We only had to travel a few stops on the underground and only had to walk a few paces when we found the 'sister' shop - an enormous Aladin's Cave! It must be at least 5 times the size of the other shop - amazing! Nooks and crannies full of every kind of material, thread, bead, haberdashery item you could possibly ever want.

We poked our noses round a corner and found a couple of ladies and a little girl sewing together. Such a lovely sight! We apologized for disturbing them and they invited us to join them. How amazing is that! What I didn't know is that the shop offers free classes every now and then and we'd just stumbled upon it. They very kindly showed us how to make this lovely little felt reindeer Christmas tree decoration! We got to take him home too!! Thank you ladies!!

We had such a lovely afternoon with them and had a totally unplanned, special 'mummy' time together. So much so that I really wanted to share what we made and our time at The Sewing and Craft Superstore. Be encouraged to make your own reindeer and please do go and visit this very special shop that is nearer than you think!
