About The Whistling Cowgirl

Bright and cheerful handmade sewn goods

I graduated in English Literature from Sheffield University and then spent some years acting in theatre and TV, during which time I also worked in many offices and random places across the capital. Having always sewn and crafted as a child, I began to pick up a needle and thread during this time and found myself with an ever growing stash of fabrics. Now I work from home, designing and making. I write soft toy patterns for Simply Sewing magazine, which can be bought in the UK, Europe and Worldwide. You can check out my Instagram page to have a proper look!
