over 40 years of family business…

Fine Fabrics has been a family-run business since 1984, built on a foundation of expert craftsmanship and quality materials. It all began with our father, Ron Ralph, opening a shop on Tarporley High Street, offering made-to-measure curtains and blinds inspired by our mother’s exceptional sewing skills. As demand grew, we expanded into larger spaces, eventually moving beyond the High Street to Beeston Brook, where we remained for 15 years.

In 2015, Ron retired, leaving us to carry on the tradition. Today, our mother is still found in the workroom most mornings—not out of necessity, but out of love for her craft. We’re fortunate to have a loyal customer base alongside new visitors, all welcomed into an environment where they can explore at their own pace. Whether you prefer to browse independently or seek expert guidance, Fine Fabrics is here to help, offering decades of experience and a genuine passion for quality.
