Does the "A" in "A Rubanesque" Stand for Aladdins Cave?

A. Rubanesque Ltd on South Wiiliam Street, Dublin 2 is an Aladdins Cave of all things haberdashery!!!! From ribbons to buttons, lace to embelishments and not forgetting embroidery skeins, this place has it all!

A recent visit saw me buy some beautiful metallic skeins and some dinky embelishments and I'm planning a visit soon so I can check out their latest delivery of Japanese fabric and ribbon delivery!

Although you can't yet purchase online, you can still keep up to date with the latest deliveries etc on checking out : http://www.facebook.com/pages/A-Rubanesque-Ltd/76754714791?ref=nf

A visit is a definite must...

That Crafty Little Fish

I want to pay homage to my fav blog of the moment - That Crafty Little Fish - what a great "Crafter"!!!!

Kirsty is a UK based designer/ maker/ retailer and I want her talents... I also love to browse her shop on Folksy and am mesmerized by her colourful buttons, bunting, fabic etc. I am lusting after the Matroyshka cotton fabric - needing some inspiration for what I could do with it so as to justify buying it - not like I need much justification to buy anything these days (lol)!

And as I am about to embark on a sewing spree (I can visualise the chaos and stabbed fingers already lol), I think I may very well just have to invest in one of these cute little pin pots! I ain't called a Shopaholic for nothing you know!
