A Creative Reset That Sparked a Bag-Making Frenzy

After 20+ years as a nurse, I never thought the hardest part of running a business would be… IT! It’s been a month of tech trials, so when a free Sunday came up, I swapped screen time for clay time with my husband - and it was just what I needed. Messy, calming, joyful. The perfect reset.

That burst of creativity sent me straight back to the sewing machine - and I’ve made seven new bags this week! Two were bespoke designs for customers who picked their own fabrics at a recent market (the joy on their faces was priceless). The rest are part of an exciting collaboration with Mel from Botanica Pattern Designs.

This special edition features her gorgeous prints, waxed canvas, oilskins, and preloved linings - and I’m only making 25. Once they’re gone, that’s it.

🎪 Or come see me at the Romsey Beggars Fair this Saturday - choose your own fabrics and design a bag you’ll love.

Let’s make something magical,
