TheTweedGallery

Hand made bags and accessories by Ellie’s Handbags crafted from the iconic ever popular Harris Tweed fabric. Uniquely designed friendship bracelets and key rings especially designed for the young at heart

In my dedicated workshop in Oxfordshire I love nothing more than being able to immerse myself in making bags, purses, key rings, well just about anything I can think of in the wonderfully versatile Harris Tweed fabric. I started sewing as a child when I first made my own clothes on a borrowed Singer sewing machine and have never stopped. I started making bags about ten years ago for my friends and family, progressing to selling at local craft fairs as Ellie’s Handbags - named after my first make of a felt elephant at just five years old, which I still have 60 + years later !
Most of my bags are unique in fabric choice as I rarely make more than one in any one fabric design.
I have since started to design and make simple friendship bracelets and key rings which keeps me busy me when I am unable to sew.
