HABERDASHERY 1966
There was press studs, buttons, needle's and pins
Hook's, eye's, all sorts of things
Buckles, bows, knitting needles and wool
Threads in all colours, for cross stitch to fill
Binding tape, ribbons, long and short laces
Doll-making kits, with sew on faces
Tape measures, crochet hooks, sequins galore
This haberdashery counter "first on the shop floor”
Motifs, patches, collars and cuffs,
Name tags, padding, elastic and muffs
Curtain rings, thimbles, zips, tassels and beads
All you require for your sewing needs
There was lots more items for you to buy
Like a tapestry, a dolly bobbin, or a handy wool winder
Patterns, books, magazines to keep in a binder
Did you make a rag doll, picture or a cardigan?
Does your memory of school and the sewing class live on?
On the Apron with the cross stitch
The check school dress with pocket,
We all made the same, I haven't forgotten it
I learned how to thread the shuttle and cotton
And here's a few memories I haven't forgotten
My trips to the shop - Haberdashery section
Make me smile with fond affection
