Heart Vandana

heartvandana's Shop Announcement

I have always been a passionate artist from an early age, I have always loved to draw, paint and just be creative.

It wasn’t until I moved out of home and borrowed my step dad’s sewing machine that I started to get interested in textiles and working with fabric.

Some of my favourite projects when I first started to work with fabric were marking soft toys and fabric badges. One of my first soft toys (an owl) caught the interest of my cat. I caught the cat one day walking around the living room with the owl in his mouth so I thought to my self ‘they must be loveable’

after showing some of my plush toys to good friends with all the positive feedback I embark on a creating spree and this is how my first pattern evolved which I have loving called “snow people” people have asked me ‘why do you call them snow people’ and my reply is ‘because they remind me of people all dressed up in warm gear about to adventure into the cold snow, and all you can see is there face’

and this is how Hart Vandana was created, from the joy of being creative and seeing the reacting of people when they hug one of my soft cuddly plush toys.

My creations can be found in the following stores

Cocoon – Launceston Tasmanian
Pocket Space – Hobart Tasmania
