Baby presents

Went to a new shop today that one of my sewing friends told me about.  Direct Knit and Sew Ltd on Attercliffe Road, Sheffield.  It's like an Aladdin's cave!  It looked fairly normal, even outdated, from the front but when i went in i couldn't believe have far back it stretched with ream upon ream of fabrics.  A sewer's heaven.  I bought some baby fabric to make a present for a colleague who will be leaving on maternity soon.  I was quite please with them, if i do say so myself.  The ribbons on the fiddle blanket are a bit big, the baby will probably get it's hand stuck in them but it was too messy to open everything up again.  Cost - small bit of fabrics used - £11.50 for patterned fabric and £5.50 for toweling fabric on reverse.
