Oh Dressew, How I Love You So

SHOPPING AND CRAFTING IN VANCOUVER
It's called Dressew.



It's in a cruddy part of town.



It keeps pretty tough hours; especially for us working girls.



It's far from fancy.



And it's another one of my favourite shops, ever.

Full of fabric and yarn and notions and other crafty bits; aisles devoted to just zippers or buttons. It brings a tear to my eye.





It's fun all year round but the place teems with activity for the month of October in preparation for Halloween. We bought some baby blue faux fur for a costume idea.





I also left with yarn for my new scarf project and fabric scraps / notions for an up coming paper doll project.

Thimble and Thistledown are other self proclaimed Dressew Junkies.

If you are ever in the hood, don't miss it.
