About River Lily Textiles

River Lily Textiles

Something old, something new, always creative - it’s what I do

Hi! I’m Sue and I grew up in Knutsford, Cheshire. When I was little, I used to play in the brook which was always known as the River Lily - that’s where my shop name comes from. I’m inspired by nature and natural fibres. I can spin wool and other yarns, weave on a 40 year old Dryad floor loom, knit and crochet! But I also like sewing, making my own patterns, recycling old cloth and designing and making new items. I started my shop on Folksy way back in 2011 but had to have a break for family reasons. Now I’m back, and am looking forward to selling my crafts again. I previously sold mostly children’s nursery items on Folksy, but have made a leather duster coat from a complete hide and my own pattern, for a client and enjoyed it so much , I have now acquired more leather and am seeing what I can make with it. I love putting my own ideas into things and my autumn leaves are my new designs. I have a craft room at home but my work spills out into the rest of the house - at least my dog doesn’t mind and is often literally ‘under my feet’!.
