Source of press-studs for quilt modification

Post by pistonbroke »

Looking to get some press-studs of the type used on Alpkit's Cloud Cover quilt. My cunning plan is to sew/affix them to a silk liner that I put my matress in so preventing the quilt going walkabout when I turn over in the night. I've asked AK but as the quilt is made in the far east, neither they or their repair shop in Hathersage can help. Anyone know of a suitable online supplier, looking for about 6.

Haberdashery or material shop would be my first port of call, especially one of the ones you find in industrial units. A quick google search shows haberdashery places surrounding the peak district so you should hopefully get lucky.

Peak district? I live in Cataluña :smile:
Bill, I'm looking to match the press studs to the ones already on the Alpkit quilt, they're about 7mm diameter and sort of rivetted together rather than sewn.

Fair enough.

I'd pop to John Lewis, do you have one in sunny Cataluña.

You did say Hathersage, my mistake!
