At Alexandra’s Bread not only do they sell these cool bags made of oilcloth, but they sell rolls of vibrantly designed oilcloth for you to make your own things with. Placemats, table cloths, drawer liners- there are many uses.

Every time I go into Alexandra’s bread I’m astounded by all the cool stuff in there. It’s not just bread either. I hesitate to say that Alexandra’s talents are almost wasted in this space because I’d hate to see her go, but really she ought to be a buyer for a huge store. She has assembled the coolest collections of things like Arley Pett’s 1899 Gloucester Map Coasters.

If you were born in Gloucester you remember Twin Lights Soda. You remember those heavy glass soda bottles and you remember the crates that they used to put the heavy glass bottles into. You remember the different cool flavors like birch beer, and cream soda.
Well Alexandra’s Bread exclusively carries Twin Light T Shirts. She had them made up with permission from the bottler. For a little bit of nostalgia, cruise on down to Alexandra’s Bread, grab a cobble or six and check out all teh cool stuff on the walls for sale.

Is there some kind of knitting revolution going on? Between these hand spun yarns at Present on Pleasant Street, Coveted Yarns on East Main Street, and Kat Valentine’s knitting blog I feel like there is some devious secret knitters plot brewing. Be aware people, they’re all around us these knitters!
