Item details

Welcome to my Folksy shop. I love British wildlife and nature, and these are the inspiration behind my designs.
I create original textile art using a combination of fabric appliqué, freehand machine embroidery and hand embroidery.
The designs are scanned by my local printer, and digitally printed onto coasters, placemats, tea towels, tote bags and greetings cards. I also make handmade cards and beautiful hanging decorations for your home.

One of my favourite designs is the buff-tailed bumble bee. My children found a perfect, albeit sadly expired one, by our back door. It was the first time I had really looked at this beautiful insect in detail. It was so fluffy, and I had never realised how long bees’ legs were! I used an old sari fabric for the wings, and added the details inside them by hand. A friend of mine commented how lovely to have been able to preserve this tiny insect forever in a design, something that hadn’t even occurred to me! It’s amazing how studying something closely sets off a new train of interest – we planted several packs of bee friendly flowers in the garden earlier this spring!

This design inspired the Insect card collection

To me, the most special cards are the ones we receive out of the blue. The ‘just thinking of you’, or ‘saw this and thought of you’ cards. The thought that went into the card decision … based on the person that knows you, a shared experience, or a moment of empathy…
