Bags that are fun, unique and special

I started making bags when I wanted to take one on holiday but just couldn’t find what I wanted. Then I wanted an evening bag that went with my outfit and so found myself making another. Then friends started asking me to make them bags and it went from there.

I've sewn for a long time making patchwork quilts to clothes for my girls when they were young and I've always loved English Paper Pieced quilting and embroidery. To me it is mindful.

All my bags are one offs, I love making bags that are truly individual. Each bag is handmade, most with unique hand embroidery designed and sewn by myself.

Sustainable sewing is very important to me and I use upcylcled materials or dead stock fabrics for all my bags. This could be old jeans, remnants from the fashion industry or mens shirts.

I plan every bag adding unique features so no two bags are the same. They are great for any special event or just an evening out.
