Edith’s here! Whoop Whoop! Probably some of my favourite upcycled fabric. She’s sitting in my shop watching the rain and listening to the archers. Link in Bio. #wearableart #makersgonnamake #textilebrooch #textileartist #handmade #broochlover #dollmaker

Here’s the delectable Sally Cinnamon. She’s made from some of my very favourite fabric, repurposed of course. Sally is full of mischief and charm and likes to dance barefoot at parties. She’s soon to be in my shop! Link in bio. #broochlover #textiles #textilebrooch #textileart #fibreartist #handmade

Cecilia is here! A textile brooch made from repurposed fabrics and all kinds of vintage loveliness. Cecilia enjoys second book shops and the scent of lavender.

Here’s Martha. Made with much love and some 60s vintage fabric and buttons. She’ll be in my big cartel shop later, selling her wares. #textileartist #textilebrooch #vintagetextiles #broochlove #madewithlove #textiles #upcycling

Everyday in February I will be making and listing a little art doll brooch inspired by my vintage stash. Here’s a sneaky preview of Edith. She is fond of playing cribbage. #textiles #textileart #textilebrooch #vintagefabrics #textiledoll #cumbrianartists #applique

I’m joining @heidiparkes.bsky.social for the February Quilting Challenge #vignettequilts . It’s a bit of a departure for me but I would like to extend and improve my hand stitching skills so here I go. Plus the quilts are beautiful. Wish me luck. I’ll try to post progress here. #textiles #quilt

Everyday next month (that’s the lovely month of February) I’ll be posting a tiny textile brooch person for your delectation and then uploading them for sale on my super-dooper new shop. It’s a challenge for me as I’m not historically great with SM but 2025 is the year of effort and accomplishment!
