a bit of history


I have been meaning to visit this store, ever since a friend mentioned their range of beautiful fabrics. When I arrived, I took the wrong entrance and found myself in a huge warehouse with hundreds of screens for hand printing (wish I had the camera!). Florence Broadhurst fabrics remind me of an era of extravagance and romance, with floor to ceiling wallpaper and vibrant and rich fabrics. The showroom has a selection of remnants which I managed to pick up at a fraction of the price, they have large pieces and smaller pieces, depending on what you prefer.
