Ever since I was a child, I always associate picking lavender with summer, in the same way as I think of strawberries and cream or sandcastles on the beach. I can clearly remember helping to strip the tiny flowers off the stalks, thinking what a fiddly job it was, and can keenly remember the smell of lavender in the house for hours afterwards. Making lavender bags today carries on the same tradition and the lavender fragrance in the winter is a gorgeous reminder of summer days.

I grew up with a mother who was a huge fan of Laura Ashley; each year we would pore over the new catalogue when it arrived in the post and eagerly look through the new designs. I still love the vintage ditsy patterns and they work perfectly in this jug design. It's also a great way of using up tiny snippets of fabric which would otherwise go to waste.
All embroidery is hand-stitched and each piece is cut by hand and then hand-appliqued, so no two bags will ever be exactly the same!
