Welcome to the Stitch Directory!
The aim of the Stitch Directory is to support and promote independent craft stores by highlighting their location, and what they do best, to help them attract new and returning business.
So, use this craft supplies directory to find textile shops near you.
The main objective of the Stitch Directory is to support independent retailers and suppliers of craft supplies. If your store falls into any of the below categories, consider adding your business to this art and craft directory for FREE:
At the School of Stitched Textiles, all our City and Guilds textile courses, along with our beginner online craft courses, require students to supply their own materials and equipment. As such, we are regularly asked about the best independent craft shops. Our Stitch Directory allows businesses to put their stores in front of an active community of shoppers, artists, makers and crafters.
Due to being completely FREE to use, haberdashery companies near you can add their listing and make regular amends at no cost.
Artists and crafters can use the Stitch Directory to find stores and suppliers within their area. Type your location or product into the search and you’ll find textile shops near you.
Our craft supplies directory couldn’t be easier to use so find your local craft suppliers below.
