Further to our previous notice, and following the latest government advice, we have closed The Make Spot studio until further notice. As disappointing as this is, we must and will do everything we can to ensure this pandemic is dealt with as best and as quickly as possible. We are still open online at www.themakespot.uk and will continue to fulfil all fabric, patterns and accessory purchases as long as we are able.
