A bold and beautiful Lady McElroy fabric

We wanted to take a moment to thank our customers who don't get the chance to visit our studio and take part in our workshops and classes. It's always a delight when we receive fabric orders from places in the world we love or have only dreamt of visiting – from Canada and the USA to Australia and beyond, or closer to home in Europe, we've shipped special fabrics to customers around the world.
Summer update.

Q: “I already have sewing skills and can confidently make my own clothes and household items. Is the Adult All Abilities suitable for me?”  A: "Absolutely!!"

The Make Spot is re-opening with a simplified timetable. We are taking additional safety measures to ensure that we can safely accommodate a reduced number in our studio.
Covid-19 required closure
March 21, 2020
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.
