@Leeds_List Good to see so many new openings , also great to see an indie shop open on Briggate - Fabrication

[Fabrication Crafts @FabricationLDS]

It's been hard to know what to do for the best so lots of soul searching & maths happening over the last few months, but we think we've made the right decision for us & our makers #leeds #indiehighstreet #indieretail #evolvingnotdying #leedsindie

[Fabrication Crafts @FabricationLDS]

means we have had some tough decisions to make, especially since the York shop is doing so well due to tourism. We have come to a break clause in our lease & sadly decided to give notice once it ends in Jan
This isn't the end of Fab retail in Leeds though more news to come asap
