Closing Down Sale

Hello

It is with a heavy heart that I have to tell you after many years trading as The Fat Quarters we will be closing our doors.

The decision was not an easy one but it is as a result of a downturn in the market and a need for me to have more time to myself and my family. However, I have decided to carry on doing my work on TV with Six Penny Memories.

We are having a 50% Closing Down SALE  on ALL products (except sewing machines) in store and on the website.

Everything must go including many of the fixtures and Samples.

The opening hours of the shop will be slightly different over the next few weeks as we have decided to keep our doors open.

Saturday 2nd Feb                      10am-4pm
Monday 4th Feb                      10am-3pm
Tuesday 5th to Sat 9th Feb       10am-4pm
Sunday 10th Feb                     10am-3pm
Monday 11th Feb                     10am-3pm
Tuesday 12th to Sat 16th Feb   10am-4pm
Tuesday 19th Feb                      10am-4pm
Wednesday 20th Feb                10am-4pm
Thursday 21st Feb                    10am-3pm this will be our last day of Trading.

I will still be available to support anyone with their sewing machines and intend to continue teaching some classes.

You will be able to contact me after The Fat Quarters closes by email at
