Item details

My mice are made with an original pattern, which I still use today. The pattern was designed by my mum in 1975, I was 7!
The pieces of the pattern are partially cut out of a 'Silk Cut' cigarette packet in a tatty envelope with 'Emma' in my 7 year old handwriting on the front!!
My mum made the Wedding Mice for a few years, selling them at School Fairs and mainly giving as wedding gifts. Then she would make them all in identical outfits.
She made a number of textile gifts that she designed, but sadly no photos got taken;I guess people didn't take photos in a way we do today.
When I started sewing gifts in 2011, she gave me a few of her patterns and made me a set of mice to inspire me! I used exactly the same pattern templates as in 1975!
I decided I would customise the mice to meet the customers' requests and so they represent the happy couple. They still can be given as a keepsake gift, but now more customer's buy them as wedding cake toppers, especially for cakes of cheese.
