Hi and a warm welcome from a bit nearer home - Belfast! I agree with you about the cost of fabrics etc this side of the pond. Quite often I buy on-line from the States - even with the postage it can still work out much cheaper. If you're looking for UK quilt shops - buy one or two of the magazines - they're full of adverts and links. PM me if you want any more details. Enjoy this board - everyone is so friendly and helpful.
