Episode description

Full disclosure - my cheeks are still aching from all the laughing we did recording this episode! Thank you so much for joining me for episode 31 where I am joined once again by Claire Hutchinson for what is becoming known as the Claire Hutchinson Mini Series!

If you have listened to any of our previous chats you will know that Claire loves fabric and so in this get together she shares her favourite fabric shops and to my delight many of them were new to me and I can't wait to arrange a bus trip with Claire's mum (who sounds like a blast!) just as soon as we can go back out to shop!

In this episode you will hear:
> lots of girly laughter!
> some of Claire's fav fabric shops and why she loves them
> how to plan a fabric shopping trip the Claire Hutchinson way
> some memories of Claire's favourite shopping trips
