Children's toys and whimsical fairy tale books (many of these I still have from my own childhood in the 1980s), along with a growing vintage fabric collection from my adult years, have always been the inspiration for my work, both for my designs at college and university through to everything that I create today.
These things that inspire me give my products a whimsical and retro twist of child like charm and I feel really lucky to be able to do what I love which is to design, sew and make cute things.
