About The Crooked Thimble

The Crooked Thimble

Colourful, cosy and characterful handmade creations, stitched with love.

Hello and welcome to The Crooked Thimble!

I'm Helen, based in a semi-rural village in Derbyshire, and I love all things rustic, shabby chic, cosy country and colourful. I enjoy making and crafting things, and have a particular love for colourful fabrics and miniature dollhouses.

The Crooked Thimble was born when I wanted a heart to hang in the window of our newly decorated bedroom. I didn't want a standard, shop-bought wicker heart, so I decided to try making a fabric one myself. Using material from my collection of colourful fat quarters, I made my very first lavender-scented heart, and The Crooked Thimble began to take shape!

True to our name, my creations have their own little character. You might spot the occasional slightly wonky stitch, but each piece is made with care and love.

Thank you for stopping by my little corner of Folksy. I hope you find something special for you and your home, from me and mine.
