Olde School Fiber & Craft — Local services in Gorham

Walked in and immediately fell in love with the selection which was both diverse and full of stunning colors BUT what made it a place I’ll come back to for all future projects was how helpful the owner, Nicole was (just the fact that I left knowing her name because she was so helpful I wanted to remember it even though I’ve only done that maybe two other times in my life says a lot).
