BORONIA

Lilly Patches
Shop 10, Boronia Village

Boronia Vic 3155
Phone/Fax (03)9761 2088
Shop hours are 9.30 ¬5pm weekdays
and 9.30 till 1pm on Sat!!
1) Mother and daughter team are doing some great classes (day and evening) and their stock is growing daily. I recommend them.
2) There's lots of fabric, threads and other notions. The best part I think for people in that area is the large well-lit room at the back for classes.
3) They are a very friendly group with June Wilson as owner, Pam Lodding, teacher, and Marie serving in the shop.
Classes include Jacobean Wall Hanging, Patchwork jacket, Embroidered Bear, Heirloom Xmas Bead Tree, Golly Gosh wall hanging, Naive Bag and a sampler quilt.
June has over 1000 bolts of fabric in stock, many of which I hadn't seen before, and is expecting the full range of Thimbleberries to be delivered shortly. They are happy to cut pieces as small as 10cm if required.
I can truly recommend a visit.

LILYDALE

Textile Offcuts
186 Main Street, Lilydale
9735-1005
www.stitchnpatch.com.au
The name describes this shop perfectly. Mostly offcuts, end of rolls for curtains, bedding etc. but they also have rolls of pure cotton fabric $4 to $6 per metre. I have found timeless treasures and hoffman fabric usually the novelty fabrics, including a couple of great cat fabrics I haven't found anywhere else. Stock varies and if you don't buy it when you see it you miss out as another roll is usually not available. They did have a good choice of christmas fabric. Worth a visit if you are in the area. Anyone making dancing or calesthenics costumes would find a great variety of fabric.
