Welcome
Pincushion is a new shop open in Tunbridge Wells, located in a beautiful listed building on The Lower Walk in The Pantiles.
A hub of creativity! A fabric shop and so much more, come to us for workshops, advice, tips and inspiration. We’re colourful, busy and want to help! No matter what stage in quilting you are, let us support and nurture your ideas.
We specialise in quilting, providing templates and cottons from many designers, as well as a variety of tools designed to accomodate your methods. Workshops are run in a range of textile mediums, encouraging a community ethos. Take a look on our workshop list to explore the range of skills ready to be taught.
Our fabric stash includes Liberty, Oakshott, Merchant Mills linen, and a beautiful range of cottons. Jenny picks all our fabrics and is focused upon colours, flora, vintage and retro classics. We play with our range and aspire to use fabrics in new thought provoking ways keeping the art form of quilting fresh and diverse.
Aurifil and Wonderfil threads guide our quilts, supporting our piecing, appliqué and quilting.
Quilts are laid throughout our shop, created either by Jenny or by our quilting friends all available to be studied, shared and admired. Kits, patterns and templates accompany many of our quilts incase you’re feeling tempted.
Please pop in and say Hello!
