My mother and grandmother inspired my love of sewing and now I'm able to customise that love for all of you!

I'll be placing a fabric order THIS FRIDAY (8 July)! I've got a dress and two raglan tees to make, what will you add to my to-do list??

Had some fun designs go through my office this weekend! Including a request to make a race photo a bit more exciting 😅💁🏻‍♀️ I think we managed that!

If you’ve got an idea you want to see come to life, or maybe you’ve seen a shirt online but you’d rather support a small business owner then send us a message and let’s see what we can come up with 😉

What is on your summer to-do list? Unfortunately, mine looks nothing like this and more like:
1-Thesis project research
2-Remember to fit in time for other things 😅

I know a lot of you back in the US ordered when we were travelling over, what if I told you there was a way for you to still support my little business without paying ridiculous shipping costs?

I've found a company that will allow me to ship certain size packages up to a certain weight, for one flat rate! 📦 I could do monthly orders for US customers, and the more people who order, the less you'd pay in shipping fees as it would essentially be a "group" order! I would then use a trusted contact back home to have your items delivered to you 📬

What do we think?? 👍 👎

So many of you supported us and placed orders to be delivered when we travelled home last fall 😘

What if I told you that I found a company that will let me fill a box up to a certain weight for a flat rate? 🤯

That means, for those customers located in the US, once a month I could send a box with all your orders to a trusted contact who could then get them delivered to you there!

This would be dependent on interest and number of orders of course, but the more orders I get the cheaper the shipping fee would be for you 😉

So, what do we think?? 👍 👎

CALLING ALL EXPECTING PARENTS ❤️👶🏻 or grandparents or aunties, uncles, or anyone shopping for babies!

My sewing machine is fixed, I have some time on my hands again, AND I have a long overdue (10 years) honeymoon to pay for! 🤩

SO!

👗KIDS DRESSES!
These can be short sleeve, long sleeve, or tank tops! Can be all one pattern, or you can mix/match to suit your child’s style!

👶🏻BABY GOWNS!
These are so convenient for those late night nappy changes as well as not squishing little feet.
They are one size, but typically last from newborn to around 3-6 months depending on size of the baby of course 😅

👚 KIDS T-SHIRTS!
My go-to style in these is a raglan which I find suits any gender wonderfully! Again, can be long sleeve or short sleeve.

📑🗂THE DETAILS
For any item, I typically let you pick the fabrics, working with you to find one you like from a company I have personally used before and trust the quality of. Prices are dependent on choice of fabrics and size of the item needed but most items start at £15.

There may also be an option for personalization (as seen in the first photo) for an additional cost.

Adult clothing options can be discussed but I tend to stick to childrens to keep the cost down and the turnaround time lower. But if these don’t bother you, feel free to send me a message!

Pick up would be Rhosddu area or delivery within Wrexham. If you would like an item shipped then that would be an additional cost, usually just the cost of shipping.

I’ll also periodically be posting some photos of some fabrics I’d really like the chance to sew up if you need inspiration. Please message this page to reach me regarding placing an order or discussing fabric and pricing 😉😊

I'M BAAAACK!!! I can't wait to start making things for you all again! Here are some fabrics I'm really keen to get my hands on and would be willing to make a deal with you on the price 😉

I'll be posting and pinning a post soon with more details about what I'll be offering going forward. As always, if you're unsure of something just send us a message!

After a semester off for me to focus on school, I want to gauge your interests going forward!

So! Do you like getting to choose your own fabrics and having to wait a little longer to get your things (thinking about the baby gowns here)? Or would you prefer if I had things ready to ship when you order them, with potentially less fabric options?

I also can start offering more Children’s clothing, and adult clothing as well however due to the larger range of sizes those things would absolutely be made to order.

So let’s hear it, I want to make YOU happy and what will best serve my customers!

Option 1- Choose own fabric for baby gowns and wait longer

Option 2- Have baby gowns in a selected range of fabrics but ready to ship

We’ve been quiet because we have been BUSY! I leave for the US on Wednesday and my to-do list was overwhelming. So here’s some of what I’ve been up to: Dinosaur hoodies for my boys, a sweater dress turned in to a peplum top with a custom graphic, a sign for my best friends wedding, a design to spruce up my new backpack, family shirts for the birthday party the week after we get back, and a purrrfect gift for my cat loving mother 😅

Unwrap a fabric delivery with me ☺️ Even though it goes to someone else, I always get so excited seeing fabric for the first time in person 😅❤️

25/09/2021

I need this sinus crud to see itself out! My elastic finally arrived and I have baby gowns to finish 😅

I exercise ever precaution when I’m making these beauties for your babies: fabric is washed as soon as it arrives, work space is disinfected before every use, and I wash my hands each time I’m about to work with your fabric/piece.

I care about your health and the health of your family and would never intentionally put any of you at risk of illness.

This is why you shop small ❤️
