I’ve always loved fabric and sewing, from making tiny doll clothes with my Mum when I was little, to designing and sewing my wedding dress (many years ago!). I studied at The Scottish College of Textiles and worked in fashion retailing, before eventually moving into accounting and business administration
Now retired, I’ve been able to spend more time exploring new sewing techniques and have discovered a love for sewing bags, purses, accessories and cushions. I’m inspired by the countryside around me in Somerset, and the beautiful Devon and Cornwall coast, using fabric with botanical and wildlife prints, with some nautical colours and stripes. I mainly use cotton fabric and try to always be as sustainable as possible - no scrap is too small to be turned into something new!
As well as selling on Folksy you can also find me at craft markets around Somerset and Devon and this is something that I really love - it’s a great way to connect with other crafters and customers.
Animals are a big part of my life - I have a dog and two retired horses. When I’m not sewing I’m usually outside, walking my Border Terrier Martha, looking after the horses or attempting to grow things in the garden!

Beautifully made cushion covers, delivered very quickly. Nicely packaged in eco conscious wrapping. Highly recommended.

I love this bag. The colour is beautiful and it’s a good size without being too big. Really well made too!
