Reviews

“Had been hunting for some satin for flower girl dresses without success - floppy and with no substance - then found Croft Mill, requested a sample and it was perfect. Rang and spoke to Holly, who was sooo helpful and placed an order which came very quickly . Thank you for your sterling service.”

★★★★★ Margaret Keeley, April 2024

“Croft Mill went above & beyond to make sure I got my fabric in time for my sewing class. They also matched a beautiful lining fabric & thread which went perfectly. My teacher was impressed & asked where I’d bought it all from! Lovely, friendly & helpful over the phone & email too!”

★★★★★ Alicia Ryan, March 2024

“I have used Croft Mill for a long time now and have always been pleased with the fabric I received. Descriptions of fabrics are always clear and give information on weight suitability for particular garments and most importantly, washability and shrinkage - much more than many websites.”

★★★★★ Susan Mary Deans, Feb 2024

“Bought a pattern for shorts & trousers. Haven't used it yet, but instructions look look straightforward. Have bought lots of fabrics over many years. Always great service.”

★★★★★ Sally Furnell, Feb 2024
