Welcome to my shop
✿ NEW RANGE: Totes, clutches, runners and hampers coming end of May 2013.

I create hand block printed textile and homeware items from my original hand drawn and carved Lino patterns and vintage print blocks. Each piece is hand block printed by me freehand without equipment, the old fashioned way. I sew and construct everything with care and attention.

My fabrics take a considerable amount of time and effort to produce due to the nature of block printing.
I custom mix all my inks dyes and make every item by hand, from cutting fabric from the roll, washing, measuring, sewing, printing, heat setting and constructing.
I photograph, package and post every item I make.
Handmade is very important to me.✿

I stock storage pods and hampers, scarves, cushion covers and kitchen accessories/ tableware featuring exotic blossom, ornate wallpaper patterns, birds and giant silk moths, Kawaii creatures and intricate Indian patterns.
I constantly add new patterns to the growing range so keep an eye out for new additions.
