I think the Bramble Patch might be J16 M1, not M6.
I tend to use one in Whitchurch, Shropshire. However I also periodically use the Cotton Patch in Birmingham (Hall Green), or White Cottage in Seisdon (sp?) nearish Wolverhampton.
More over Staffordshire way theres a small place at Amerton, and theres a good one at Arkwrights Mill in Derbyshire?

Which part of Staffordshire are you?

Do you read any of the UK quilting magazines? Theres generally a fair few shops advertised in those.

Hi Sarah
Yes you're right it is the M1!! A senior moment!! I live in Coventry, I have recently bought a quilting mag and I'd tell you which one but I can't find it!
I have also bought a Debbie Mumm book and it is fantastic I have just ordered some fabric to make one of the quilts from it .
I shopped around on line and saved myself a few pounds.
If I didn't spend such a time on my laptop I 'd have a lot more time to sew!
