Scissors - An absolute essential for anyone doing dressmaking or crafts, we have a large range of scissors in all different lengths and type. From regular dressmaking scissors to pinking shears to embroidery scissors, we offer scissors to suit you whatever your needs and budget. We personally recommend Fiskars Dressmaking scissors - these are what we use ourselves!
Ribbon Embellishments - Maybe you need a pretty little bow to finish off that cute cardigan you've been knitting, or perhaps you require some tiny satin flowers to spruce up an old bag or purse. We sell all kinds of ribbon embellishments, all decorated differently - some come with pearls, some with gems, and much more.
Buttons - Buttons are used both functionally and decoratively, and we sell hundreds of different designs. Whatever diameter, colour or design you're looking for, chances are we have it available here at Calico Laine.
