          Phew, Pasrdon me for being dense, but I thought the idea of a uk site meant that we could do it all on one thread!!! I must have replied to you all on 10 at least! :lol: well, it seems like that! :? Still, check out http://www.cottonpatch.co.uk good customer service, Oh, and http://www.thequiltroom.co.uk sorry if that has already been mentioned, but cannot remember who said what now

            OH and this one mentioned in the Germany thread http://www.cosman.nl/maps/map_en.php?cn=uk just to confuse you a bit more Lynn!!

            (Just slow down and read the titles. I think we can ignore the first thread in the request section now :wink: )

            Oh and I checked out that map website for the UK ones too and found one in Romsey. As we're in Salisbury having eye tests tomorrow, OH, forever bless him, suggested we pop over there and have a look. Cool eh!!

            And your Midsomer one doesn't have a list of the classes. It's only and hour and a half away too.

                  I haven't been on the forum for a few days, how exciting to see that our country lists are up and running! I can definitely second the Bramble Patch, love their shop, their workshops and their customer service, fabric comes next day quite often.

                            Hey, gloucestershirelady, I didn't realise you were Jacky from cupcakecottons. You phoned me not that long ago, I'm Ali from ASding (that's http://www.asding.com - your wadding specialists - for those who haven't heard of us :wink: ) Don't want to be too pushy on a general forum, but hopefully I'll be forgiven for a little promotion :lol:

                              Hey Ali, just checked out your site, kool!!!!! USA spelling, :lol: I think it is fine to mention your site, thats what this is all about, and we all want as much info as possible. So, anyone else have something up their sleeve??? I had a site up to a couple of weeks ago, selling blocks and bom, but after not having any customers for 2 odd years, decided it was a waste of money! Still, my fault as did not update and add enough things to sell! So, good luck and will certainly go to your site when I next need wadding.
                              Thanks
