Bespoke Cushions!

This week I have completed a pair of bespoke cushions for a lovely customer who I helped chose the fabric and trim for her cushions, which I then handmade for her. These were a present for her to give her parents for Mothers and Fathers day, which I have been told they absolutly loved!

The colour scheme from the room that my customer wanted to continue was a dark orange and red, I therefore researched suitable fabrics and gave my customer lots of different options. The fabric that she loved was a fabric by Jessica Jones called wildflower dawn. Unfortuantly this fabric was only available in America so I ordered it and got it shipped over to the UK.

The trim we decided on was a dark red/ burgandy pom pom trim which really complimented the colours in the fabric and also the plain fabric I chose to use on the back of the cushions.

I really like how these cushions turned out and customer loved them!

Keyrings!

I spent a lvoely sunny day today sewing a selection of fun and bright keyrings...
I have used a mix of my own fabrics, retro fabrics and patterened fabrics to make these keyrings with a contrasting bright colour or stripe on the back.
The little keyring's are gently padded with polyester stuffing to give a plush  look and feel!



Ive also finished a few more makeup bags, soon to be online!... 



Lots of lavender!

Last week I spent a couple of afternoons cutting out, sewing and stuffing lots of gorgeous lavender bags!
I have used a mix of vintage, retro, floral, patterned and my own designed fabrics for the front of the lavender bags with a bright coloured fabric on the back!
All the lavender bags are stuffed with English grown dried lavender and are all hand sewn to finish!
