Beautiful toys, beautifully made
"And I never thought, standing here, alone, that I see myself surrounded by a million things of beauty and wonder and know they were mine. I created them,"
Whilst studying at the Cambridge School of Art, I discovered my love for sewing patchwork animals and bunting. Over the years, more of my friends and family asked me to make them toys for gifts or for themselves, and it slowly evolved into a small business which prompted me to pursue it further and let it take over more and more of my attention - not that I mind. Now I have a studio full of beautiful fabric and a lot of inspiration.
So far my designs include family favorites such as teddy bears and pigs, and more wild options such as dragons, lions and unicorns! In the future, I hope to offer a much wider range of animal designs: pigs, sharks, kangaroos, monkeys, penguins and crocodiles. I love making new toys and designs, and I’m always up for a challenge! I've started collecting stuffed toys I find in charity shops, just to take home and study whilst giving them a new home amongst my creations.
When it comes to fabric, I like to be creative and put together funky combinations of colours, patterns and textures to create a custom toy that is unique to only you, becoming a treasured part of your collection.
For the extra personal touch, maybe for a gift or special event, I offer hand embroidered lettering on any of the toy designs available, as well as beading, buttons and decorative embroidery. I am constantly creating new wacky and wonderful toys to see, so make sure to keep coming back to see what’s new!
