Shop Announcement:

Everything in my shop is ready to post and will usually be dispatched within 24 hours.

Save yourself a job and ask me to send a gift direct to the recipient - just add a note at checkout or message me. I’ll gift wrap and send it on its way with a handwritten note.

If you see something you like but would prefer a different size or fabric please contact me.

I like to use recycled packaging when I can, so your parcel might not be perfect on the outside but will always be carefully wrapped on the inside.

About Aquila Crafts

Aquila Crafts

inspired by fabric

I have loved fabric and sewing for as long as I can remember, cutting up my Dad's old shirts to make clothes for my Sindy doll. These days I love finding fabric at local markets and sales, especially anything vintage or reclaimed, ready to create something new and unique.

I live in Norfolk with my husband, 2 teenage sons and a cat and I like nothing better than to escape to my sewing machine or hunt out the bargains at my local market!

    This little bag is stunning. I love that it's made from upcycled materials, and the combination of colours and textures is divine. It's beautifully sewn, with the inside as lovely as the outside. I'm going to use it to hold my embroidery threads.

    Absolutely gorgeous bag, beautifully upcycled and reusing a vintage piece of stunning needlepoint.i love this reuseof one clever woman's needlework by another! Bag is large and incredibly strong. Much recommended.

    Honestly, Mel makes the most beautiful things from vintage fabrics...I was utterly helpless to resist this bright and cheery little pouch bag. And I couldn't be more pleased with it, beautifully made and super quick delivery. Thanks Mel xx
