UK readers mainly...What happened to piecemakers in Epsom?

Just finished piecing a baby quilt top & headed off to Piecemakers in
Epsom...
all I saw was whitewashed windows. Does anyone out there know what happened
and why they closed?

Thanks

Hi KAren,

I heard that Piecemakers closed for financial reasons. Seems we have
lost a couple of good 'uns in the last 18 months - I really miss Quilt
Basics at the shows. They ahd all those little 'bits' that no one
else seems to have to quite the same degree.

Piecemakers closed in July last year, Anne was offered a position position
that was too good to turn down, there was a certain amount of loss of
business, probably due to the shopping on the internet.....

Hi, Karen and others. I am Rebecca Mitchell the original owner of Piecemakers in Epsom, England. I do not have all the details on the closure of Piecemakers. I just wanted you to know that I am sad Piecemakers had to close and I hope you find another friendly place to buy fabric, get advice, and show off your final product. Please feel free to write to me.
Happy Quilting,
Rebecca
