Went back today and shop was open. It had very little quilting cotton so I got 2 pieces 1/2 meter each, a type of thimble I have never seen, some thread just because, and the man who was in charge seemed to think I needed bobbins. Could always use a few more. He also had several vintage machines on display. He sold treadle belts by the (meter?) length. He spoke no English and we could only say Danke. While we were there a lady was bringing in an older Pfaff for repair. All in all a happy experience. I think I am going to frame some of the fabric for my new sewing room. Passau really is a lovely town.
