A fancy dress store has been transformed into a quilting shop in Weston-super-Mare town centre.
Quilting In The Meadows opened on October 15 in Meadow Street and sells ‘everything you could need’.
Debbie Gibson, aged 53, turned the upstairs floor of her already-thriving business, Just For Fun, into the new shop after spotting a gap in the market.
She hopes to expand across the whole shop in the future.
She said: “Quilting In The Meadows offers anything you could need in the quilting world.
“We wanted to create a friendly atmosphere and be approachable to our customers.
“If we haven’t got anything then we will get it in.”
Debbie led a number of workshops on opening day.
