Fabric Shopping anyone?

Live in Sydney? Want to come pat some silks and laces and all fabrics fancy? Then read on!
I've reached a point with my muslin for my wedding dress that I need to start looking at fabrics to bring all my ideas together. Since I've never worked with such high end fabrics before I'd love to go to a bunch of fabric stores and get a feel for some fancy fabrics and how they will drape to help this whole process along.
So I propose a fabric shopping trip in Sydney on Saturday 30th November.
Since I live in the Blue Mountains and don't drive (I have my L's and two whole lessons under my belt but that's a whole other conversation), I'll be getting an all day train pass so I can make a day of it.
After googling bridal and high end fabric stores in Sydney's CBD I've come up with the following results. And of course I want to go to ALL of them!
Itinerary
Meet out the front of Tessuti at 10am - or you can meet me at Central and walk together - this timing can be worked out in an email once I know you're coming.
Central Station Tessuti - 110 Commonwealth Street Surry Hills walk to → The Fabric Store - 21 Cooper Street Surry Hills
Lunch - Anyone have any recommendations around Surry Hills area before heading back to Central? Or shall we choose once we're there?
Wynyard Station walk to → Saigon Fabrics - 78 Erskine Street Wynyard walk to → Studio Fabrics - 12 O'Connell Street Sydney
Edgecliff Station walk to → The Silk Shop - 226 New South Head Road Edgecliff
Petersham Station walk to → Bewitch Fabric - 359 Parramatta Road Leichhardt
Now I realise that some people have an aversion to Public Transport. That's cool. You can come to as many or as little of these places as you like. You can catch the train within the city with me or drive and meet me at each place. Or you can just join me for the regular fabric haunts of Tessuti and The Fabric Store, join me for lunch and be merrily on your way with your pile of fabric. The ones after lunch will require changing lines and things which could involve a bit of waiting (plus walking).
And let me know if I've missed any important fabric stores off this list!
I will also be making a trip to Cabramatta to check out their bridal fabric but that's for another day. Let me know if you're interested in coming along to that one and I'll post details for it.
Maybe you need some fabrics for your summer sewing plans? Maybe you just want to come pat some expensive fabric? Maybe you want to live vicariously through me as I make my wedding dress? Whatever the case may be I'd love to have you along to pick your brain, talk about construction, sewing and fabric in general!
You don't need a blog to come along to this so you can pass it on or bring someone along who may enjoy it.
If you're interested leave me a comment or send me an email at jodes182(at)hotmail.com and let me know you're coming. There's no final RSVP date, you can even rock up on the day and surprise me but if you email we can swap numbers in case of public transport woes.
Hope to see you there Sydney peeps!
