Profile
From an early age I have had a love of art and crafts-inherited from my mother and grandmother. I have always had some project 'on the go'. This led to me owning 2 craft shops but I have retired now and my passion is working with textiles and designing handbags. All my bags are totally handcrafted, are unique and original. Materials are very important from the vintage fabrics, coupled with pictures of 'ladies' from a bygone era, antique laces, unusual fringing and vintage jewellery add a real dimension of luxury to these bags. By owning one of my bags you are expressing your own individual and creativity too.
