Advice needed - Treadle Yard Goods

[ladymurmur]

My sister won a $20 gift certificate to Treadle Yard Goods in a silent auction, and gave it to me. She actually thought it said 'Yarn' instead of 'Yard', but either way, I appreciate the thought! I've only been there once, ages ago, and what I remember is that everything was rather pricey. So

I don't think they have a web site, they're pretty small. Fabulous fabric selection though. I don't think $20 will go that far, their stuff is pretty high end. They do have a fabulous selection of vintage and hand done buttons make me drool.

If nothing else, my visit to the store will allow me to pet fabric and dream. :-) I'll be sure to peruse the buttons. Thanks!

Nope, no website. They have nice stuff, but I don't think $20 will go terribly far... check out their clearence bits, thought. They have nice wool.

It never occured to me that they'd have a clearance section for some reason. Thanks!

The also have a wonderful selection of silks. So it might be worth it to splurge on a small piece for trim or somesuch.

An excellent idea! Thank you!

I agree with Petranella--get a nifty piece of silk for trim. And check the clearance section first.

If you're currently feeling broke, DO NOT bring any other form of payment with you. At all. Just the gift certificate, and maybe a couple of bucks extra. Treadle is a very dangerous store.

THANK YOU for that warning! I've managed to walk out of SR Harris having purchased nothing, and that was hard enough.

I tried that, too, and had no luck. Thanks for looking!
